Picture
"Art/Community/Sustainability:
The Recology Artist in Residence Program's 30th Anniversary and the Legacy of Jo Hanson"

OPENING RECEPTION:  Friday, December 13th, 7-9PM

This exhibition celebrates the 30th anniversary of the Recology Artist in Residence Program, focusing on works made by Bay Area artists who have had residencies since 2015, including sculpture, video, photography, painting and installation. Also exhibited are ephemera related to Jo Hanson and the program’s early years.

EXHIBITION: December 13, 2019 - January 11 2020
Gallery open on Wednesdays & Thursdays 1-6PM and Saturdays 12-3PM



Featured artists:  Michael Arcega, Miguel Arzabe, Jeremiah Barber, Mark Baugh-Sasaki , Bonanza , Alicia Escott, Rodney Ewing, Carrie Hott, Hughen/Starkweather, Beth Krebs, Ma Li, Cathy Lu, Cybele Lyle, Neil Mendoza , Mansur Nurullah, Ramekon O’Arwisters, Jenny Odell, Kari Orvik, Alison Pebworth, Genevieve Quick , Kate Rhoades, Leah Rosenberg, Erik Scollon, Chris Sollars, Kal Spelletich, Weston Teruya, Anja Ulfeldtm, and Sherri Lynn Wood

Also included will be a tribute to program founder, environmental artist and activist, Jo Hanson (1918-2007.) Newly commissioned photographs by Jamil Hellu of Hanson’s Messages from the Street binders will be shown, along with a photographic homage to Hanson’s street sweeping practice by 85 former artists-in-residence. Jo Hanson was a noted Bay Area artist and San Francisco Arts Commissioner whose legacy includes WEAD, the Women Eco Artists Dialog. Between 1970 and 1998, Hanson filled 102 binders with materials she collected from her daily practice of sweeping in front of the historic Nightingale house, her Lower Haight home. From the mundane to the momentous, Hanson's found ephemera serve as visual documents of an earlier era in San Francisco.

Since its founding, this beloved program has provided more than 190 artists with large studio spaces on-site at San Francisco’s transfer station and access to materials in the public dump, and is part of an education initiative that encourages reuse and resource conservation.
