San Francisco Art Institute Revisited
Togonon
Gallery is pleased to present “San Francisco Art Institute Revisited”.
This exhibition coincides with the San Francisco Decorator Showcase
exhibition entitled “History of San Francisco Art Institute” from April
25-May 25, 2009.
Established
in 1871, SFAI is among the preeminent art schools in the country and a
key institution in American Art history. This show highlights works of
distinguished artists in painting, sculpture, printmaking and
photography who have studied or taught at the San Francisco Art
Institute within the past 60 years. Together the works featured are
excellent examples of a wide-range of styles including that of
abstract, hard edge, surrealism, and minimalism.
For over 15
years, the Togonon Gallery has focused on exhibiting West Coast
artists. The gallery takes pride in representing numerous graduates of
SFAI and reiterating the gallery’s commitment to the visual culture of
the Bay Area.
