Appro-propagation—Residency Projects: New Work by 2015-2016 Kala Fellows
SEE EVENT DETAILS
Kala Gallery is proud to present Appro-propagation, featuring new work by 2015-2016 Kala Fellowship
artists. The exhibition includes Takuji Hamanaka, Jamil Hellu, Lucy Puls, Ronny Quevedo, Neil Rivas,
Leah Rosenberg, James Voller, and Christine Wong Yap. Kala Fellowships are awarded annually to a group of
innovative artists working in printmaking, photography, book arts, installation, video and digital media.
Fellowship artists are selected from a competitive field of applicants from around the globe. The 2015 –
2016 Fellowship artists were selected by a Kala Selection Committee and two guest jurors: Genevieve
Quick, Alumni Fellowship Artist and Kevin B. Chen, Independent Bay Area Curator, Writer, and Visual Artist.
Approaching and appropriating ideas of the multiple, the exhibition Appro-propagation explores the notions of modules, varieties, sampling, activity kits, dissemination, and transformation. Through eight artists’ unique processes, one element reproduces another connecting each other and spreading into larger socio-political, aesthetical, historical and psychological contexts. Each artist in Appro-propagation used Kala’s residency as an opportunity to expand their working medium by challenging something new to further develop project ideas. This act of expansion and engagement both within their own art-making and with the audience is part of the core mission of our residency program.
###
Tours of the Kala studio, gallery and print-and-media study center are also available by appointment. For more information, contact Mayumi Hamanaka, Gallery Director, [email protected] or (510) 841-7000 ex 201.
