This January, a diverse group of local galleries and arts organizations proudly present the inaugural iteration of Karl-a pop-up, group exhibition hosted at Levi's Plaza. This collaborative initiative highlights a curated selection of contemporary California artists, offering a fresh perspective on the region's vibrant art scene.
Set against the backdrop of Levi's Plaza and its public park-a landmark space designed by acclaimed landscape architect Lawrence Halprin-the exhibition honors the dynamic interplay between art, landscape, and legacy. Halprin's celebrated design, which seamlessly integrates urban and natural elements, provides a fitting stage for amplifying the richness and diversity of California voices.
The Bay Area has long been a hub for collaboration and innovation and Karl exemplifies this ethos. The exhibition not only celebrates the artists championed by each participating organization, but also demonstrates the potential of uniting around a shared vision and fostering a vibrant and inclusive arts ecosystem.
Schlomer Haus Gallery will be debuting new work by Ryan Robichaux, a Los Angeles based artist whose gestural oil paintings explore masculine intimacy with abstract figures.
