Tomorrow night, June 14th in Oakland is an exhibition curated by Colpa Press, San Francisco at Interface Gallery.  “Just Make Something”, features works by Et Al (Aaron Harbour, Jackie Im and Facundo Argañaraz), Stairwell’s (Carey Lin and Sarah Hotchkiss) and The Popular Workshop (Andy Hawgood and Nate Hooper). These curatorial teams have been asked to work together as artists by creating one limited edition object. Each team will present their object at Interface Gallery from June 5th to 30th with an opening reception on the 14th from 6-10pm. The resulting work will be featured in a publication by Colpa.  This exhibition is an interesting project asking gallerists to collaborate and create works as a product of the spaces they run.  It will be exciting to see what they have made and listen to the concepts that inspired the work.

 

Interface Gallery is located in the Temescal District of North Oakland in Temescal Alley @ 486 49th Street (between Telegraph Avenue and Clarke Street).  For more information visit here.
