Genevieve Quick, Scopes and Scapes, 2010
Genevieve Quick is a San Francisco-based artist whose work addresses the history of image making and landscape with a particular focus on the mechanics of visualization. While referencing optical devices from the Victorian era as well as those from the end of the 19th century, Quick’s sculptures appear nostalgic and at the same time suggestive of retro-futuristic and science fiction worlds. For her solo exhibition at Southern Exposure, Quick presents Scopes and Scapes, a combination of carefully crafted sculptures and drawings exploring past and future ways of looking.
The gallery exhibition will open on Friday, January 8, 2010 from 7 – 9 pm, with artist talks at 6:30 pm by participating artists, Quick, Roberts & Vogt. The exhibition will be on view January 8, 2010 – February 20, 2010. Gallery hours 12 - 6 pm, Tuesday - Saturday.
