I am featured in several exciting group exhibitions this summer, including the Paule Anglim Archive Room show at 500 Capp Street, Pump Up the Volume at Walter Maciel Gallery, and Abstraction at Anglim/Trimble.
500 Capp Street presents
PAULE ANGLIM ARCHIVE ROOM
June 24 – August 26, 2023
In conjunction with “The Condition Where Art Would Disappear,” an exhibition featuring some of artist David Ireland’s most iconic works, 500 Capp Street celebrates the launch of its newly-named Paule Anglim Archive Room, opening the space to the public for the first time for a special archival exhibition. Named after one of San Francisco’s most important gallerists who represented and championed Ireland and many other local conceptual artists, the Paule Anglim Archive Room houses objects, artworks, photographs, and ephemera that serve as an essential time capsule of the conceptual art movement of the 1970s-90s in the Bay Area and beyond.
In 2022, Anglim’s estate donated several small artworks, papers, and more to 500 Capp Street, enriching the archive with works by many of Ireland’s contemporaries including Gay Outlaw, Paul Kos, Enrique Chagoya, William T. Wiley, Tom Marioni, Tony Labat, and Alan Rath. Select works from the newly expanded collection will be on display alongside pieces from Ireland’s personal collection and works by female conceptual artists from his circle including Hannah Wilke, Mildred Howard, Katherine Sherwood, Amy Trachtenberg, Ann Hamilton, Mie Preckler, Catherine Wagner, and Peggy Ingalls. Also on view are other donated or loaned works including several gifted by Jim Melchert as well as William T. Wiley’s 1977 book, Suite of Daze, on loan from printer Timothy Berry. Screening in the Garage will be Same Difference (1975), a film by Al Wong with sound by Terry Fox on loan from Canyon Cinema. Catalogs, personal correspondence, and other ephemera documenting the lives and careers of Ireland and his contemporaries will also be on display.
"Paule Anglim's relentless passion for and commitment to California post studio art practice was unparalleled,” says Jennifer Rissler, Interim Executive Director, 500 Capp Street. “As the eponymous protagonist of the archive room at 500 Capp Street, Paule's legacy intertwines with that of David Ireland's, and is a lasting testament to how important she was in elevating Bay Area conceptual art beyond her gallery's walls."
For more information, the public may visit 500cappstreet.org or call (415) 872-9240. The David Ireland House is located at 500 Capp St., San Francisco, CA.
