Hosfelt Gallery : Brad Brown - Serials; Nicole Phungrasamee Fein - Foci.
Comment by AB: Choose from approximately 1000 6 by 6 inch works on paper by Brad Brown, splayed out on long tables and arranged into series. Mix & match & be prepared to spend some serious time perusing. In the back gallery, Nicole Phungrasamee Fein's grid works appear to be made with the assistance of rulers and straight edges, but according to the fact sheet, they're entirely freehand. Stop on by and be amazed.

Michael Rosenthal Gallery : Megan Whitmarsh - Radiant Artifacts.
Comment by AB: Los Angeles artist Megan Whitmarsh actualizes fanciful realities in both two and three dimensions. No matter what it is, she'll turn it into art.

The McLoughlin Gallery : Grand Opening - Group Show.
Artists: Christine Comyn, Renaud Delorme, Pia Maria Martin, Kirstine Roepstorff, Dalia Nosratabadi, Jan Peter Van Opheusden, John Waguespack, Shiri Mordechay, Freya Channing.
Comment by AB: Auspicious inaugural event for The McLoughlin Gallery, occupying what was formerly Mark Wolfe Contemporary Art at 49 Geary. My faves? Polished pop portraiture by Renaud Delorme incorporating all manner of found objects and discards from floppy discs, cable and casette tapes to Legos and VCR tapes (priced $20K-$42K). Swing on by and have yourself a gander.

San Francisco Art Exchange : Keith Richards Photo Tribute.
Review by RWM: Exciting to see Keith Richards in his many guises. You won't see a personal evolution here; the photographs are not presented that way. But you can't help appreciate Richards' many personas and wealth of expressions. It has been a long life journey for this Rolling Stone. Some of the images include interesting background scenery to boot.
