Root Division presents Introductions 2017, the 11th iteration of our annual juried exhibition. The Introductions exhibition showcases the talent of thirteen emerging artists in the San Francisco Bay Area, offering exposure to the art community and beyond through public reception, and catalogue documentation.
Through a highly competitive review process this year's jurors -- Patricia Carino Valdez, Curator and Director of Public Programs, San Jose Institute of Contemporary Art, Kira Lyons, Director, Gallery Wendi Norris, and Hesse McGraw, Vice President for Exhibitions and Public Programs, San Francisco Art Institute -- selected twelve finalists from over 200 submissions based on the conceptual and formal strength of the work. The resulting exhibition includes diverse range of media and subject matter featuring painting, drawing, sculpture, video, photography, and more.
The exhibition has become one of the keystones of Root Division's exhibition programming offering exposure to emerging artists and a chance for the public to view cutting edge local art production in the Bay Area.
