After a busy week at the Art SD fair, there was lots of art to see around the rest of the county. Here is just a sampling for the week of Nov 11
Ilan-Lael Foundation’s Conversations on
Beauty: San Diego…Where The Arts Belong is a panel discussion with Hugh
Davies, Daniel Foster, Patricia Frischer, April Game, James Hubbell, Peter
Jensen on
Tue. Nov. 12th from 5:30 - 7:00pm at the Mingei International Museum (Plaza de
Panama, Balboa Park,1439 El Prado, SD 92101) More info: Marianne Gerdes
A lively discussion with a pro position (April) and con position (Hugh) on a County Art Council.. A pro position (Daniel) on a shift to community as central to museum policy and a defense position (Hugh) of art at the highest level. I took a stand for embracing the unknown future and risk taking. James and his pure message of Art as a means to make the interior of each of us visible was the stabilizing force. Peter kept us all on task.

Cannon Art Gallery 2013 Invitational with Cheryl Tall, Allison Renshaw, Julia San Roman,Catherin Colaw, Linda Kardoff Sat. Nov 16, 5 -7 pm (1775 Dove Lane, Carlsbad, 02011) More info: Jillian Buccola
This show was a super choice by Karen McGuire which happens to be all women, and is a very strong showing by each of these artists who were all picked from the annual juried exhibition. Allision Renshaw showed especially lively recent work. We saw angelic work from Cheryl Tall which is quite an accomplishment using this heavy ceramic medium. The intriguing photographic figures in landscape by Catherin Colaw and atmospheric rendering by Julia San Roiman were continuations of series we have seem previously. LInda Kardoff's illustrative works seem suitable for giant children's books with their lush colors and narrative stories.

April Hernandez: State of Mind Thursday,
November 14th, Glorious Gardens(495 Leucadia Boulevard, Encinitas 92024) More info:
888.493-7472 press@agloriousgarden.com
We are seeing many new small galleries and alternative showing spaces springing up all over town and it is great to feel the energy of this push from young artist. Perhaps they are frustrated not to have showing opportunities, but this is manifesting in a surge of small venues where artist are being inventive and owners are programming to help them bring a crowd. Glorious Gardens is getting a hand from Melissa Sager formerly of Susan Street Fine Art. This tiny space just off Freeway 5 on Leucadia is planning a whole series of workshops and exhibitions.
