Small Works, SF presents Framings, a solo exhibition by Oakland based artist David Wilson. The exhibition centers on two new large scale works on paper and in turn, two new large scale wood frames made in an active collaboration between artist and framer. One large work, made in sumi ink while sitting through the Summer and early Fall on the northwest side of Mt Tam faces a second large work, made in watercolor while sitting through the late Fall on the southeast side of Mt Tam. Additionally, Framings features a selection of smaller works, a new screen print edition, and a day bed for enjoying a moment of repose.

Small Works, SF is a custom frame shop based in the Dogpatch neighborhood that creates hand built frames and seeks to support the local art community with occasional curatorial projects.  This is the first presentation at Minnesota Street Project hosted by Small Works. 

David Wilson is an artist based in Oakland CA. He creates observational drawings based in direct experiences with the landscape and orchestrates site-based gatherings that draw together a wide net of artists, performers, filmmakers, chefs, and artists into collaborative relationships.  He organized the experimental exhibition The Possible at the Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive, had a solo Matrix exhibition at BAMPFA, received the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art’s SECA Art Award, and was recently the first artist in residence at The David Ireland House.
