Gallery 16 is proud to present its sixth show with artist Alice Shaw, Golden State.
As the name suggests, Golden State, takes a look at the things that are important to the modern day culture in the state of California: religion, money, fame, booze, driving, and parking. Shaw is a photography based conceptual artist who frequently employs other media in her practice. For this exhibition she has included the ready made, collage, found imagery, fiber arts, and paint on canvas. Shaw grew up in California where people have been coming to find riches since before it was established in 1850. She lives and works in San Francisco.
