Beyond The Frame
A Celebration of Large-Scale Art
The featured artists in the show bring diverse perspectives to painting—ranging from non-representational to figurative—each delving deeply into their unique artistic processes and personal inspirations. Their artistic philosophies encompass a broad spectrum whose approaches vary widely yet share a common emphasis on transformation.
These values include works that allow sensations to evolve into form, as well as pieces envisioned as arenas where light and gesture converge to create vibrant, evocative compositions. Some of the painting on view emerge from an atmosphere of shadow and shape, capturing a sense of fluidity and potential, while others respond to the sensual and seductive qualities of life, striving to convey those emotions through art. These works aim to transport viewers through images, sounds, and emotions, recreating profound and transformative sensations.

“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 Review
