(San Francisco, CA) – For Venus Over Manhattan's inaugural presentation at FOG Design+Art the gallery is pleased to showcase a focused selection of both historic and contemporary works by Peter Saul, Joan Brown, Richard Mayhew, Brad Kahlhamer, Sally Gabori, and John Pule. Celebrating the Bay Area’s creative heritage, our presentation spotlights major works that foreground personal histories and richly varied aesthetics, reinforcing the vital role this legacy plays to many of the gallery’s artists.
Among the highlights is San Francisco Earthquake, a major new painting by Peter Saul that extends a key series depicting the artist’s hometown—another example of which is in the Metropolitan Museum of Art’s collection—and A New Age: The Bolti Fish, a commanding self-portrait by Joan Brown featured in her recent retrospective at San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. The presentation will also include a luminous painting and a suite of watercolors by the late Richard Mayhew, who passed away in September at the age of 100.
