SUMMARY:Andrew Catanese Solo Exhibition | I Watched Your Leaves Grow Silver in the Wind
DESCRIPTION:Johansson Projects presents I Watched Your Leaves Grow Silver in the Wind\, an exhibition featuring paintings by Andrew Catanese. The exhibition explores ecologies of recollection\, as Catanese channels connections among places and individuals\, particularly those who linger only in memory. \nFor Catanese\, painting is a narrative medium that moves across time and space\, reshaping how we see the everyday world. Their canvases feature landscapes\, shifting weather\, animals\, and spectral figures\, each serving as a portal to distinct moments and memories the artist calls “slips” in time and place. Painting becomes a bridge to people and environs that have been lost\, abandoned\, or rediscovered. Gazes\, where they appear\, are slant\, unfocused. Animals sulk through forests\, searching\, unaware that they are being watched. Full figures\, with backs turned\, are ensconced in brambles\, alienating them from the viewer. Imbued with distance and uncertainty\, Catanese’s lush compositions swim in windswept\, haunting ambiguity. \nA mysterious and quiet spirituality permeates the work\, suggesting something just beyond reach. Catanese’s expressive use of color deepens the atmosphere\, intensifying the sense of connection and longing throughout the exhibition. Amid today’s uncertainty and division\, Catanese’s paintings remind us of our deep-rooted desire for kinship. These poetic works encourage reflection and uncover the bonds that persist\, even in the most turbulent times. \nI Watched Your Leaves Grow Silver in the Wind will run from August 6 to September 27\, 2026.

SUMMARY:Ultrahive4
DESCRIPTION:For August and September we are excited to feature UltraHive 4; a traveling art show with over 100 artists making original cd cover art! This vibrant and eclectic exhibition showcases artists from around the globe\, each contributing unique works that explore the CD cover as both canvas and concept. From reimagined album art to sculptural pieces crafted from actual CD cases\, the show celebrates the cultural legacy of physical media while pushing the boundaries of contemporary art. By transforming these once-ubiquitous objects into personal and provocative expressions\, the artists revive nostalgia\, challenge format\, and reframe the way we view music\, memory\, and material. Together\, their works create a dynamic visual mixtape that pays homage to the golden age of the compact disc—remixed for a new era. \nUltraHive 4 has recently shown at the Hive Gallery in Los Angeles. After showing here at FM Oakland\, it will then travel to Japan for display at the Tokyo Designfesta Gallery. Enjoy while it’s here with us today!  \n“Ultrahive4”\nAugust 7th – September 26th\, 2026\nArt Murmur Receptions:\nFriday\, August 7th\, 5-10pm\nFriday\, September 4th\, 5-10pm

SUMMARY:Hannah Franco: Poiesis
DESCRIPTION:SLATE is pleased to present Hannah Franco: Poiesis\, a solo exhibition of new paintings by abstract artist Hannah Franco. Featuring ten new paintings\, Hannah Franco brings her once-hidden washes of color forward as the true subject of the work\, revealing a self that had long lived quietly beneath the surface. Honoring the power of softness and vulnerability\, Franco pays tribute to the often invisible and systemically undervalued domestic labor and love women have long contributed to their communities. \nFranco earned a BFA from Pratt Institute in New York City and studied fresco painting in Florence\, Italy\, now currently living and working in Oakland\, California. She has shown with Oxide Collective in San Francisco and is represented by SLATE Contemporary Gallery in Oakland. \nOpening Reception: September 12\, 4-6pm\nHannah Franco: Poises is on view at SLATE from September 4-October 3\, 2026. \nSLATE Contemporary Gallery is open Tuesday through Saturday from 11am-5pm.

SUMMARY:GearBox Gallery presents\, FUTURE VISION with Caleb Dowdell & TaVee McAllister Lee
DESCRIPTION:Future Vision brings together the work of Caleb Dowdell and TaVee McAllister Lee\, two artists looking at the forces that shape the world we imagine and the world we create. Opening reception\, Saturday\, September 26th\, 2-5pm\, with Caleb Dowdell performance at 4:30pm \nCaleb Dowdell’s Our Prism of Dreams is a kinetic\, five-sided plexiglass prism featuring hand-painted portraits of people whose lives have expanded what others might believe possible appear together as examples of persistence\, courage\, and possibility. Painted with layers of translucent acrylic\, the portraits shift and overlap as the prism moves\, suggesting that one person’s accomplishments can become another person’s starting point. \nTaVee McAllister Lee approaches the future from a different direction. Her floating paper collages are assembled from torn magazine images and fragments of text\, bringing together scenes of desire\, consumption\, achievement\, violence\, environmental damage\, displacement\, and everyday life. Images that once belonged to advertising and mass media are removed from their original contexts and placed into new\, often uneasy relationships. \nTogether\, the works ask us to consider what we carry forward. Lee examines the competing interests and consequences of our collective and individual choices. Dowdell points to inspiration in individuals who light the way toward who we can be and what we can do. Future Vision does not offer a single picture of what lies ahead\, instead\, it places hope\, aspiration\, responsibility\, and uncertainty alongside one another—and leaves room for us to consider what kind of future we are helping to make.

SUMMARY:Artist’s Reception – William Rhodes: Fear Not
DESCRIPTION:William Rhodes: Fear Not\nSeptember 17 – October 31\, 2026 \nArtist’s Reception: Saturday\, September 26th from 1-4 pm \nAll are welcome! Please join us for the Artist’s Reception for William Rhodes’ solo exhibition\, Fear Not\, in conjunction with the reception for concurrent exhibition\, Ellen Bepp: The Ghosts We Carry. Greet the artists\, check out the exhibitions and enjoy the light refreshments and lively conversations.  \nLook for the “ART” Building at 770 West Grand Ave and come upstairs to Transmission Gallery for this event.  \n Free street parking on West Grand Ave and in the neighborhood south of West Grand. \nMore about Fear Not: \nWilliam Rhodes’s sculptures on view incorporate objects that have been used\, inherited\, discarded\, or found with elements he has carved himself. Trained early on as a furniture maker\, he combines hand carved figures\, flames and snakes with objects collected from a family home\, photographs\, hardware\, tools\, and other remnants of everyday life. Neon words signal from some pieces. \nThe resulting works resemble shrines or memorials\, but they remain grounded in the ordinary. Religious symbols appear alongside household objects. A photograph might be surrounded by carved waves\, tools\, hardware\, animals\, or religious symbols. A suitcase can become an architectural space. A toilet becomes the base of an unexpected monument. Things with little apparent value are carefully incorporated into elaborate constructions\, their histories becoming part of the work.\n​\nRhodes is equally interested in people; family\, mentors\, and leaders\, as well as those who have been overlooked or treated as disposable\, recognizing and elevating their presence in his work. By giving attention to these lives\, enshrining and revering them\, he considers how value is assigned and who gets remembered. \nThe title Fear Not appears in the work as both a phrase and a kind of instruction. It can be read in relation to the religious imagery that runs throughout the sculptures\, but it also takes on a morepersonal meaning. To look closely at lives and objects that are easily dismissed is\, in its own way\, an act of resistance to that dismissal.

SUMMARY:Live at inStudio
DESCRIPTION:The Distance Between: Traveling Beyond Count Time \nProgram & Event Overview\nCurrently on view at Empowerment Avenue’s inStudio in Oakland\, The Distance Between: Traveling Beyond Count Time brings together stories told through the work of Black currently and formerly incarcerated artists. Their work traces histories of enslavement and confinement alongside the realities of incarceration today\, while carrying memory\, endurance\, and imagination toward something beyond them. Together\, these works invite us to explore the space between captivity and liberation\, to see differently\, and to imagine a world beyond systems of punishment. \nFriday\, October 2 | 1:00–9:00 PM \n1:00 PM | Gallery Opens\nEmpowerment Avenue’s inStudio will open its doors at 1:00 PM\, inviting visitors to experience The Distance Between: Traveling Beyond Count Time and spend time with the work throughout the afternoon. \nLive at inStudio\n6:00 PM | Panel Discussion: Black Yearning for Freedom \nAt 6:00 PM\, we will gather for a conversation exploring a continuing Black yearning for freedom and the ways artists carry memory\, history\, our bodies\, and our imaginations onto canvas and paper. \nMoving between histories of enslavement and confinement and the realities of incarceration today\, the conversation will consider art as a place to hold these experiences while also imagining beyond them. What does it mean to create from within systems of confinement without allowing confinement to define the limits of the imagination? What can Black creative practice teach us about freedom\, possibility\, and the worlds we have yet to make?\nThe conversation will feature exhibition artists Ray Williams Jr. and Alvin Smith\, alongside exhibition co-curator De’jon Joy.\nThe discussion will be moderated by Milan Drake\, Community Design Lead at the Hasso Plattner Institute of Design at Stanford University (the d.school). \n7:00 PM | Live Performance by Inertia the Artist \nFollowing the conversation\, Inertia the Artist will offer a live performance in the gallery.\nInertia the Artist is an Oakland-based vocalist\, loop artist\, facilitator\, and somatic psychotherapist whose soulful music and sound work center healing\, transformation\, and social change.\nThe performance extends the evening’s exploration beyond the visual\, bringing voice\, sound\, body\, and collective experience into the exhibition space.

SUMMARY:Under The Thumb
DESCRIPTION:This group exhibition at Werkshack Studios brings together four artists to explore themes of oppressive systems\, power\, and control through glass and mixed media. \nWorking across diverse techniques including fusing\, painting\, stained glass\, cast glass and more\, each artist brings a distinct perspective to the ways power shapes our lives and communities. Glass becomes both medium and metaphor: beautiful yet fragile\, transparent yet obstructive\, resilient yet vulnerable. Together\, the works examine how systems of power are experienced differently across individuals and groups\, inviting us to consider who holds power\, who is affected by it\, and what it means to resist\, endure\, or transform it. \nArtists: Elin Christopherson\, Lynne-Rachel Altman\, Cricket\, Anne Wong \nGallery Hours: Saturday\, 1 – 5 pm (and by appointment)\nArtists’ Reception: Saturday\, September 19th\, 5 – 7pm \nOakland Art Murmur / First Friday: Friday\, September 4th and October 2nd\, 5:30 – 9:30 pm

SUMMARY:Opening Reception: Material as Witness
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an opening reception for Material as Witness\, curated by Rena Tom! \nMaterial as Witness explores the photograph as object\, with its own material sensibility and narrative. Objects can trigger powerful emotions and memories\, and materials carry their own associations based on tactile properties or cultural significance. The artists in the exhibition engage in image-making\, in a truly hands-on sense\, to subvert (or amplify) the power attributed to photos as documentary evidence and bearers of truth.

SUMMARY:Fear Not - William Rhodes Artist's Talk with Gospel Choir Performance
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for William Rhodes’ talk with gospel choir performance by the Dr. George W. Davis Senior Center Choir\, music conductor and leader Kenneth Little\nSaturday\, Oct 3rd starting at 2 pm \nThis is part of a series of NEXUS SFBay events including the Caleb Dowdell performance with his piece\, Our Prism of Dreams\, starting at 1:30 pm just downstairs  at Gearbox Gallery\, performance about 15 minutes. William’s talk starts at 2 pm upstairs with the Dr. George W. Davis Senior Center Choir closing out the event with a Gospel Choir performance. See one or both at that galleries at 770 West Grand Ave in Oakland.  \nMore about Fear Not\, William Rhodes’ solo exhibition at Transmission Gallery: \nWilliam Rhodes’s sculptures on view incorporate objects that have been used\, inherited\, discarded\, or found with elements he has carved himself. Trained early on as a furniture maker\, he combines hand carved figures\, flames and snakes with objects collected from a family home\, photographs\, hardware\, tools\, and other remnants of everyday life. Neon words signal from some pieces. \nThe resulting works resemble shrines or memorials\, but they remain grounded in the ordinary. Religious symbols appear alongside household objects. A photograph might be surrounded by carved waves\, tools\, hardware\, animals\, or religious symbols. A suitcase can become an architectural space. A toilet becomes the base of an unexpected monument. Things with little apparent value are carefully incorporated into elaborate constructions\, their histories becoming part of the work.\n​\nRhodes is equally interested in people; family\, mentors\, and leaders\, as well as those who have been overlooked or treated as disposable\, recognizing and elevating their presence in his work. By giving attention to these lives\, enshrining and revering them\, he considers how value is assigned and who gets remembered. \nThe title Fear Not appears in the work as both a phrase and a kind of instruction. It can be read in relation to the religious imagery that runs throughout the sculptures\, but it also takes on a morepersonal meaning. To look closely at lives and objects that are easily dismissed is\, in its own way\, an act of resistance to that dismissal.

SUMMARY:Artists’ Reception – Julie Engelmann\, Amos Goldbaum\, Liv Losee-Unger\, Fernanda Martínez\, & Deirdre Weinberg
DESCRIPTION:Meet the artists of Big\, Small\, and Everything In Between and celebrate this group exhibition featuring five Bay Area muralists. Join us for an afternoon gathering and a closer look at how these artists bring the color\, energy\, and visual language of their public work into the gallery’s intimate setting. Free and open to the public. \nJulie Engelmann\, based in Half Moon Bay\, works across murals\, paintings\, and digital illustration. Using media ranging from acrylic on canvas to spray paint on large walls\, she creates highly detailed and often surrealistic imagery\, frequently drawing on historical themes and using color and composition to create new visual possibilities.  \nAmos Goldbaum is a San Francisco–based visual artist known for his signature line drawings\, which span canvases\, large-scale murals\, prints\, and apparel. Inspired by the places and everyday scenes around him\, his work combines multiple viewpoints\, angles\, and moments in time into cohesive compositions connected by a singular line. His murals can be found throughout the San Francisco Bay Area and in cities around the world\, including New York\, Los Angeles\, Seattle\, Tokyo\, and Kathmandu.  \nLiv Losee-Unger is a Bay Area muralist known for vibrant\, nature-inspired\, and community-centered art. With more than sixty public artworks completed across the United States and abroad\, her detailed and colorful murals transform spaces through stories of flora\, fauna\, femininity\, and human connection.  \nFernanda Martínez is an Oakland-based painter\, muralist\, and sculptor whose vibrant\, expressive work draws from memories and observations of nature. Born and raised in Mexico City\, she moved to the Bay Area in 2015\, where she has developed an experimental and intuitive practice exploring the emotional depth of color\, form\, pattern\, and texture. Her work spans painting\, sculpture\, murals\, and public art\, transforming her distinctive visual language across two- and three-dimensional forms. Martinez has exhibited her paintings and sculptures in galleries and has collaborated on numerous public art projects for businesses\, nonprofit organizations\, and community-focused and affordable housing developments.  \nDeirdre Weinberg is a multidisciplinary artist with deep ties to the San Francisco Bay Area\, working across murals\, public art\, and studio practice. Her evolving work currently focuses on climate change\, using a limited black-and-white palette to explore landscapes\, seascapes\, and airscapes with a sense of urgency and starkness. Whether creating work in public spaces or the studio\, Weinberg seeks to build community\, connect with viewers\, and inspire conversation\, reflection\, and new perspectives. \nSeptember 26 – October 31\, 2026\nArtists’ Reception: Saturday\, October 3\, 2-4 pm\nOakland Style Week Art Tour: Saturday\, October 10\, 11 am-2 pm\nGallery Hours: Saturdays\, 12-5 pm & First Fridays\, 5-8 pm

SUMMARY:Angela Johal: Intersecting Colour
DESCRIPTION:Join us at SLATE Contemporary Gallery on Saturday\, October 10 from 4-6pm for an artist reception in celebration of our newest exhibition\, “Angela Johal: Intersecting Colour.” \nThis exhibition invites viewers to explore how hue and tone interact across vividly painted color fields. Johal approaches each painting as a puzzle to solve\, seeking balance among dichotomous realms—physical and spiritual\, light and dark\, vivid and subdued—creating compositions that reveal how each color shifts\, responds to\, and is transformed by those around it. Steeped in color theory\, Johal’s work is deeply informed by the human eye’s natural passage through dimension. This exhibition features abstracted geometric compositions that\, when meditated on\, transform into natural landscapes\, animal-like forms\, and shifting light.

SUMMARY:Artist Talk – Patricia Guthrie: Get Up Stand Up
DESCRIPTION:One purpose of art is to support and communicate political messages. Using color\, letters\, and shapes\, Patricia Guthrie’s abstract quilts deliver political messages relating to the government\, international relationships\, and global warming. She creates artwork using cotton fabric\, wool batting\, dyes\, and machine stitching. \nBio:\nAfter retiring as a professor and department chair of Human Development and Women’s Studies at California State University East Bay\, Patricia Guthrie decided to actively engage in the visual arts. She began taking community-based art classes: drawing\, photography\, quilt making\, and printing on fabric. Quilt making and all its aspects has become her passion. Guthrie hopes her quilts encourage viewers to move beyond art that is merely pleasing to the eye to seek a deeper meaning.\nHer work has been shown nationally and internationally including Schweinfurth Memorial\, Art Center\, Auburn\, New York; International Quilt Museum\, Lincoln\, Nebraska; Philadelphia Museum of Art\, Philadelphia\, Pennsylvania; and Tuch + Technik Museum\, Neumunster\, Germany. This is Guthrie’s second solo show at Mercury 20 Gallery. \nGallery Hours: Friday and Saturday\, 12 – 5 pm (and by appointment)\nOpening Reception: Saturday\, September 12\, 3 – 5 pm\nOakland Art Murmur / First Friday: October 2\, 5 – 9 pm

SUMMARY:Artist Talk – Tara Esperanza: Close to Home
DESCRIPTION:Tara Esperanza\, Guardians\, 2026\, acrylic-on-panel\, 20” x 16”\, Photo courtesy of the artist \nWhether painted in California or Oaxaca\, the works in Close to Home begin with the same impulse: to slow down and look closely. Working on a more intimate scale than in her previous work\, Tara Esperanza found herself drawn to quiet moments of observation\, where familiar plants reveal unexpected beauty through color\, form\, and light.\nCreated between two places that have become part of her life\, these paintings are less about geography than about attention. Though rooted in different landscapes\, each painting is shaped by the same curiosity and sense of wonder inspired by the resilience and sculptural elegance of plants. For many years\, succulents have been Esperanza’s way of exploring themes of adaptation\, diversity\, and endurance. Through this body of work\, the smaller scale invites viewers to slow down\, look closely\, and discover that what is closest to us often has the most to reveal. \nBio:\nTara Esperanza resides in Oakland\, California\, where succulents thrive year-round. When she is not painting\, she enjoys running and capturing images that later inspire her work. Esperanza earned a BFA in Painting\, graduating cum laude from the University of Massachusetts Dartmouth\, and studied plein air painting in Brittany\, France. A representational painter inspired by nature\, she has dedicated years to portraying the remarkable beauty and diversity of succulents. She has been a member of Mercury 20 Gallery in Oakland\, CA\, since 2020. Her work has been shown at the Women’s United Art Movement Virtual Gallery\, as well as numerous group exhibitions. In 2025\, Esperanza received Best of Show at the Annual National Juried Painting Exhibition at Emerald Springs Art Center in Oregon. Her paintings have been featured in Create! Magazine\, New Visionary Magazine\, and other publications\, and are held in private collections throughout the United States. \nGallery Hours: Friday and Saturday\, 12 – 5 pm (and by appointment)\nOpening Reception: Saturday\, September 12\, 3 – 5 pm\nOakland Art Murmur / First Friday: October 2\, 5 – 9 pm

SUMMARY:Artist Talks: Present Figures – Curated by Laura Malone
DESCRIPTION:Laura Malone\, Carnivale\, Oil on Linen\, 60” x 48”\, 2021\, Photo courtesy of the artist \nPresent Figures brings together five California painters whose works exist within the figurative language of portraiture\, simultaneously expanding and disrupting it. Centered around themes of intimacy\, boundaries\, and embodied emotion\, each artist takes an individual approach to media\, scale\, and the capacity of the human form to be both a site of identity and a vessel of metaphor. Engaging in profound considerations of what it is to be human—our physicality\, sense of self\, relationships\, consciousness\, and creativity\, these artists invite us to engage with these shifting\, eternal questions and reflect on our own experiences—be they practical\, peaceful\, disturbing\, humorous\, fragmented\, spiritual\, or otherworldly. As individuals\, choices that begin with who and what to portray later manifest in stylistic and material communiquès that boldly and poetically reveal themselves to the world. Collectively\, the psychologically charged spectrum of the group reminds us of the myriad ways our sentience can be narrated. Like Anais Nin said\, “We don’t see things as they are\, we see them as we are.” \nBio:\nWith Present Figures\, Laura Malone expands her practice to curation. Malone invited four artists to show alongside her\, chosen for their unique and diverse approaches to representing the figure: two Southern California artists — Cindy Craig and Shannon Rae Fincke — and two from the Bay Area — Nina Katz and Heidi Brueckner. Collectively their work has been shown across the globe in Europe\, Asia\, and the United States. Malone’s artwork was featured in The Crocker Kingsley National Art Competition and included in “Disrupted Realism\,” juried by John Seed\, who wrote the book of the same name. Malone currently resides in Oakland\, CA and has been a member of Mercury 20 since 2023. \nGallery Hours: Friday and Saturday\, 12 – 5 pm (and by appointment)\nOpening Reception: Saturday\, September 12\, 3 – 5 pm\nOakland Art Murmur / First Friday: October 2\, 5 – 9 pm
