Yesterday Jack Scott and I were invited to speak to the Gallery Design and Install class at College of Marin. Jack talked about his process, seeing black as a color and the challenges of working at such a large scale. I touched on being an atypical gallery, adaptation and listening to intuition. The students were thoughtfully engaged and asked great questions.

We also discussed Jack's upcoming solo show at the College of Marin Fine Arts Gallery. The Gallery class will be assisting in the installation and working the gallery while the show runs.
Save the date- November 16-December 12th with the opening reception on Saturday November 21 from 3-5pm.

The show is a homecoming for Jack, the College of Marin is where he studied and taught.
If you haven't seen Jack's work in person, you really should.
We are so grateful to Chris West for giving us this platform for Jack's work and inviting us into the class!

In 1978, Artforum reviewed Jack Scott. Today, Artforum published Aaron Fagan's "Jack Scott on Absurdity, Enormousness, and Nothingness," written from his conversation with the artist. πŸ–€

I've represented Jack for four years, and seeing him back in Artforum after forty years is thrilling. His monumental charcoal drawings, some reaching 22 feet, each built from a single repeated mark, are back after decades out of view.

Read Aaron Fagan's piece at the link in bio.

Last chance to RSVP: August 18 to 20, Jack hangs ten of these works himself in an Alameda studio, and I'm inviting a few people to see it happen in person. Reply or message me to reserve your space.

This August, on the island of Alameda in California, we will be installing 10 of Jack Scott's monumental charcoal drawings to be photographed over the course of 5 days.
This piece, created in 1976, is 240" wide and 120" high. It will be a physically demanding job requiring a crew and scaffolding.

I'm crazy enough to also invite people to witness the installation as it's happening.
The installation is part of the piece and process.
These canvases are unstretched rolls. They are rolled onto the wall and pinned up in place. Jack goes back and stretches the middles and staples to the wall as if stretching to a bar. He repeats this step, working around every side.
The effect is genius.
The medium is dangerous.
The mark is repeated.
The large object appears to be floating.

If you are interested in being invited to this intimate viewing the dates are August 18-21. Time slots are filling fast. The afternoon of Aug.20th is already to capacity. DM for more details or rsvp.
I think it will be epic.
