Curator’s Statement Arc Fine Arts Consulting was established as a natural extension of the mission of Arc Gallery and Studios. Arc is dedicated to showcasing and promoting emerging and established artists in the San Francisco Bay Area. Since establishing Arc in 2010, the Gallery and Project Gallery have provided exhibition opportunities for over 1000 mostly local artists. Our artist studios are the working home for 15 outstanding local artists. Our goal has been to foster community; providing an arc between our vibrant Bay Area art scene and its art enthusiasts, collectors and businesses. Our consultants are uniquely qualified to build bridges between these communities. Collectively, the partners share over fifty years of experience in art galleries, art consulting, art non-profit volunteering & management, and art-related academic training. Our extensive experience and personal involvement with local art organizations, in particular, has allowed us to build an unrivaled network of relationships with artists here in the San Francisco Bay Area. We are blessed with some of the most prestigious art schools in the country. On a per capita basis San Francisco boasts a higher percentage of working artists than any other city in the country. The opportunity for local collectors and businesses to build collections which tap into and support these communities is unparalleled. Arc Fine Arts is singularly dedicated to fostering those connections. We are grateful to have the opportunity to work with Vedder Price in curating their office in San Francisco. And, we appreciate their strong commitment to working with local artists.

Sharon Beals
Sharon Beals is the author and photographer of Nests: Fifty Nests and the Birds that Built Them. The Nest Series documents nest and eggs specimens dating from the 1800’s to present day from The California Academy of Sciences, the Museum of Vertebrate Zoology in Berkeley, the Western Foundation of Vertebrate Zoology in Camarillo, California; Cornell University Museum of Vertebrates; and the National Museum of Natural History at the Smithsonian. She has traveled to Australia to photo at the Australian National Wildlife Collection and to the Bishop in Hawaii and has been photographing the nests of extinct and endangered birds. Besides the nests, she photographs wild native habitats and watersheds, and recently, serpentine coastal fault lines. Responding to the issue of plastic ocean debris, she has created photograms of plastic fragments to make large scale, deceptively beautiful yet confrontational images.
