SUMMARY:Sin Contar Cincuenta: Miguel Arzabe Solo Show
DESCRIPTION:Johansson Projects is pleased to announce Sin Contar Cincuenta\, the third solo exhibition by Oakland-based artist Miguel Arzabe with the gallery. Arriving at a moment of heightened social and cultural reckoning\, the exhibition features a dynamic body of new weavings that reflect not only a rich “pluriverse” of influences–interpolated ways of being and expression that span the artist’s personal life\, Bolivian heritage\, and art historical precedent–but also the urgent need to honor and defend cultural plurality in today’s world. \nSin Contar Cincuenta runs from January 17 – March 21\, 2026 with an opening reception and artist talk on January 17\, from 3-5pm.\nFor all inquiries\, contact Johansson Projects at 510-444-9140  or info@johanssonprojects.com

SUMMARY:Three Girls – Christine Ferrouge
DESCRIPTION:Three Girls\, a solo exhibition with new paintings by Christine Ferrouge \nGallery Hours: Thursdays\, Fridays\, and Saturdays noon-5pm; and by appointment\nExhibition Dates: January 22\, 2026 – February 28\, 2026\nClosing Reception: Saturday\, February 28\, 2026\, 3-5pm \nCalifornia painter\, Christine Ferrouge makes paintings about the social and intrapersonal complexity of girlhood. Inside these paintings\, her daughters and their friends have been growing up before our eyes. Now the girls are older. They are not little girls. They are teenagers. Ferrouge’s teens are not exactly what you might expect. They are not the weak\, crazy\, second class we often negatively associate with “teens”. They have the strength\, dignity\, and psychological presence that she has always shown us in her paintings of girls. They are still the “women-to-be” that you could always see simmering below the surface of these determined and confident characters. \nThese works are a mother’s view of her teens: their lounging around\, napping frequently\, and the quiet social understanding between the them. You can feel the unique and tight knit bond-especially connecting the girls- and the looks they give you when you catch them in that sacred space. “When you enter the gallery and stand in front of one of these scenes\, you are present in their space\, but you are not part of their circle.” –Ferrouge\nThis is a well established thread in Ferrouge’s work. After the Costume Party (2019)\, Desert Picnic (2020)\, After the Fires (2021)\, Watching/Waiting (2023)\, and Girls in the Mirror (2024) all give the viewer the feeling that you are in their space. The artist first observed exclusivity and girl power in her daughters and their little friends when they were just 5 and 6 years old\, which inspired The Huddle (Ferrouge\, 2016). To Ferrouge’s surprise\, many young men found that painting scary. \n“[Ferrouge] portrays complex humans\, not cute\, one-dimensional beings; her paintings are seriously insightful images…”\nBetty Ann Brown\, PhD \n“…painter Christine Ferrouge\, whose ongoing portraiture practice engages a particular thread of art history in which women paint women\, girls\, and girls on the cusp of womanhood—celebrating their insider’s perspective on subject’s inner lives\, and their outsider’s perspective on the culture that surrounds them.”\n–Shana Nys Dambrot\, Art Critic\nLos Angeles\, 2024 \nIn contrast to the seven feet high oil paintings that dominate the room\, Ferrouge also has small works that capture the gestural\, figurative narratives on an intimate scale. Since beginning to paint and exhibit some small paintings last year\, they have become popular and easy to collect.\nPlease visit the gallery to experience this work in person: \nGearBox Gallery\n770 West Grand Ave.\nOakland\, CA 94612\n510-290-9660\ninfo@gearboxgallery.com\ngearboxgallery.com\nThursdays\, Fridays\, and Saturdays noon-5pm
