Generation: The Roots of Making in the Asawa-Lanier Family Opening Celebration
SEE EVENT DETAILS
Generation: The Roots of Making in the Asawa-Lanier Family is a group exhibition that brings together four generations from a San Francisco family of makers. Generation spans 57 years of work produced by the Asawa-Lanier family from 1965 to 2022. Motifs, including interwoven patterns of line, repetition, minimalism, color and form, appear in all artists' works. Together, they form a story of four generations of a family that is joined not only in relationship, but by the curiosity and love of materials, color, and pattern.
Timed to coincide with Ruth Asawa's birthday month, the exhibition also pays homage to the roots of Ruth's Table, an art center and gallery which was profoundly shaped by Asawa's values and continues to use the power of art to build a more connected, resilient, and inclusive community.
Opening Celebration onsite January 12 at 6-8pm. Masks required at this event. The event features live DJ music and opening remarks by the curator.
