Toomey Tourell Fine Art : Brian Rutenberg - Eight Landscapes.
Comment by AB: Brian Rutenberg straddles the boundary between abstract and representation, incorporating the best of each. "Landscapes" with plenty of room for interpretation.

Comment by Kathryn Arnold: For the 75th anniversary of the Golden Gate Bridge, George Krevsky Gallery puts together quite the exhibition. Many classical works of the Golden Gate Bridge from the past are juxtaposed with contemporary renditions.

Dolby Chadwick Gallery : Tom Lieber - Wired.
Review by Kathryn Arnold: Meshes of painterly lines evoke atmosphere. Erasures create hidden agendas at the same moment visible becomes self-evident. Flurries of activity in calmness.

Cain Schulte Contemporary Art : Gyöngy Laky - Crossover.
Review by Kathryn Arnold: Wood, plastic, wire components and more are used in creating this imaginative series of works-- maneuvering object-like elements into new wholes, or new materials into new objects. Works worth viewing.
