Description
Pro Arts and the Oakland Art Gallery present Bay Area Currents 2009, the annual juried exhibition showcasing the depth and variety of inspired artists currently working in the Bay Area art scene. Twenty-seven artists from a pool of almost 300 were selected for studio visits from which the juror made eleven final selections for the exhibit.

Selected Artists are: Bert Bergen, Adam Friedman, Daniel Healey, Donna Anderson Kam, John Patrick McKenzie, Stephanie Metz, Billy O'Callaghan, Joan Osato, Elizabeth Pedinotti, Alex Potts, and Annie Vought.

Juror Kevin B. Chen, Program Director for the Visual Arts, Literary Series, and Jazz at Intersection for the Arts, has been involved in the San Francisco Bay Area arts community for over 15 years as a curator, arts administrator, and visual artist. He serves on selection panels for such entities as the Creative Capital Foundation, and San Francisco Arts Commission Cultural Equity Grants and Public Art Programs.
