Frankel Gallery : Richard Misrach - Being(s) 1975-2015.
Comment by AB: This retrospective survey focuses on the figure in Richard Misrach's photography, from its first appearance to the present day. Perhaps Misrach's greatest skill is his ability to portray the insignificance of man against vast expanses of land and sea. Now if man could only take his insignificance to heart and stop trying to control the show all the time, life might be substantially more civilized and bearable. But alas, reality rules doesn't it? Good show; go see.

Rocha Art : Channeling The Dionysian - John Waguespack.
Comment by AB: Exhilarating upbeat abstractions by John Waguespack will add life to any room, from stained wood panels that simulate endless horizons to compositions that immerse views in bubbly multicolor hallucinatory realms.

Harvey Milk Photo Center : High Water Line - Spencer Aldworth Brown.
Comment by AB: Spencer Aldworth Brown slaps on a wetsuit, gets low to The Bay and photographs urban and coastal views from just above the surface, all this with an old-school film camera. Kinda like it.
