Jenny Robinson at Davidson Galleries, 313 Occidental Ave S, Seattle, Washington 98104, April 4 - 26, 2008. Opening reception with the artist: "First Thursday", April 3, 6-8 P.M. Robinson King's Cross Relic. 2007. Etching, aquatint. 1/3 e.v. 27 x 37 inches. Jenny Robinson’s earliest impressions of the effects of light and shadow were formed in Malaysia where she was born and spent her early years. After studying in the U.K. and traveling extensively she moved to San Francisco in 2000. Her current body of work, large scale intaglio prints, examines the effects of light and shadow on urban, industrial architecture. In particular it focuses on scenes taken from urban environments in cities such as London, New York, and San Francisco, where she seeks out the overlooked, the mundane and the everyday urban structures such as warehouses, gasometers and overpasses. The artist’s use of large etching plates and monotypes effectively captures the grittiness and mystery these places often evoke.Chester Arnold - Exhibition, The Road to Paradise, March 15 - April 19, 2008.

On MAY 3rd VAGADU will be celebrating local artist Kara Maria in San Francisco. For weekly updates on the process of creating Vagadu's Kara Maria. collection, check out their blog HERE. Kara Maria's work explores the politics of war and its influence on popular culture. In her art, Kara combines images of pornography and combat to examine the interaction of sexual energy and the military. Her artistic process is often to employ a chaotic all-over composition, with recurring figures, or similar objects repeated to create a landscape where abstraction meets porn stars and women in burkhas, and where birds in flight mingle with armed aircraft.Kara Maria - Exhibition, Dystopia, at the Catharine Clark Gallery.
