Light & Matter: The Art of Matthew Brandt is a retrospective exhibition featuring more than 100 photographs and multi-media artworks, some of which have never before been exhibited. Curated by Colin Westerbeck, Light & Matter examines how Matthew Brandt continually reinvents and reimagines photography itself. Large-scale portraits rendered in molten metal, photographs transformed by being processed with samples of the subject matter they represent, and images printed in edible materials are among the more than 20 distinct bodies of work in the exhibition.

Rose Gallery | 16 April 2022 - 4 June 2022

ROSEGALLERY is pleased to exhibit Starr King / Lands End, a presentation of John Chiara’s most recent works taken in his home city of San Francisco. Chiara’s one-of-a-kind works are primarily focused on two locations: Starr King, a 3.5 acre of natural space nestled on the southern side of Potrero Hill, and Lands End, a natural recreation area on the northwestern corner of the city that overlooks the Pacific Ocean. These spaces are compressed and transformed into complex compositions that abstract the familiar forms of the forest.
