kaleidoscopic, sensual, and expansive worlds hidden within us and around
us. On display will be painting, sculpture and mixed media works

painting, and works on paper.Night Vision was curated by Isaac Jasper Amala. This is his curatorial debut. Featured Artists: Abel Soto DíazCaleb YonoDJ WhelanEsther HilsenradIsaac Jasper AmalaLlane AlexisMariana VarelaTom WhiteVita Hewitt

ABOUT GRAY LOFT GALLERY
Gray
Loft Gallery has promoted the rich art culture of Jingletown and the
greater Bay Area for 10 years. The gallery has been referred to as a
hidden gem in Jingletown, and noted by the late Kenneth Baker, former SF
Chronicle Art Critic, in his Visual Arts Don’t Miss Column as “…A space
gaining prominence in the Bay Area…” The mission of the gallery is to
provide exhibition opportunities for artists in a setting that is an
alternative to the traditional gallery model. We hope to inspire, engage
and celebrate artists in our community and beyond. We acknowledge the
achievements of emerging, mid-career and established artists – with an
emphasis on those who live and work in the Bay Area – in a
non-traditional art space. A number of artists began their art career at
Gray Loft Gallery. “I have
always enjoyed this gallery, superb atmosphere and lighting. The
polished and worn hardwood floors creek slightly in places as you climb
to the third floor, providing a granular and unique, organic aesthetic.
This is a do-not-miss venue in the East Bay.” – Facebook ReviewGray
Loft Gallery has received "Best Art Gallery" in the Oakland Magazine's
Readers Choice Award in 2016, 2017, 2021 and voted one of five top art
galleries in 2022.
Hours: Saturday, September 3: 2:00 - 7:00 pmMasks are requested in the gallery.
