Join Visual Aid and the San Francisco Library in an exhibition of mixed-media sculpture and installation by San Francisco artist Dan Pillers. Works will be on view through May 5th.
Pillers describes the autobiographical aspects of his work as a reflection of, "the reality of being a forty-seven year old gay man living at the beginning of a new millennium." Pillers cleverly combines image and artifact with text and humor to illustrate the human experience. The artwork topics span from such issues as childhood memories, drug addicts, gay rights, bigotry, sexuality, HIV and widowhood. His work is a testament to human endurance and survival.
This exhibit is a site-specific installation using samplings of work created over the past decade. The combination of art, text and artifact act as a narrative surrounding the strength and weakness that remain within the human psyche.
