This is the 3rd Annual 48 Pillars exhibition at Arc Gallery. 48 Pillars was inspired by a chance encounter at Flax with a close-out sale of deep vertical panels, 48” x 12”. 24 Bay Area artists each produce two companion pieces or diptychs on these identically sized panels. The panels exactly ring the gallery – 48 works total. It is essentially a “structural constraint” show - the artists are unconstrained in subject matter, except to the extent that works need to be a series, but they are constrained in format.
