RECEPTION FOR THE ARTISTS Saturday, November 26th, 2011
4:00 P.M. - 6:00 P.M.

Jack Fischer Gallery would like to announce the opening of a show featuring the work of Japanese photographer, Ken Morisawa.

Based out of Tokyo and armed with a Nikon NIKONOS-V, Morisawa captures idiosyncratic moments beneath the surface of water. His subject is often water itself. Seeking to demonstrate the beauty and flamboyance of its movements, Morisawa turns to novel means of capture.

fishman / waterfall will consist of two series produced between 2003 and 2009. In Fishman, Morisawa photographed swimmers passing through the water above him. These images show bodies completely engulfed by water, the former powerfully pushing against the latter, which acquiesces, but not without turbulence.

The second series again sees Morisawa photographing water in a surprising (and some might even say dangerous) manner. In this case he stood beneath a waterfall, and caught images of the surging current as it splintered into millions of droplets and bubbles.

It is obvious from looking at his work that Morisawa is a man who is intimately familiar with the enigma and power of water. Aside from his photography, Morisawa’s involvement with this element extends to free diving and fishing.

fishman / waterfall will open on Saturday October 15th with a reception for the artist from 3:00 to 5:00. It will extend until November 19th. For more details on the show or the artist, please refer to the contact information below.

SHOW DETAILS

Jack Fischer Gallery is pleased to announce the opening of a solo show by Los Angeles based painter, Scott Yeskel. A rich marriage of abstraction and the representational, Yeskel’s work always springs from the same source: the urban landscape of Southern California and its sprawling outskirts of mountains, freeways and airports.

The sights are familiar to most Californians: taco trucks, Airstream trailers, and old Volvos parked outside Spanish tiled condos with requisite palm trees. In part, these represent the sheer ubiquity of cars and other vehicles in that vast, dry terrain, so often traversed on four wheels. Sometimes Yeskel depicts the difficulties of this peripatetic lifestyle with paintings of traffic jams, car crashes, and a thick, hazy smog that his palette captures faultlessly. But there is also a hint of romanticism there. This is especially true of the abstracts, which possess a real sense of grace and rationality. Their titles betray, however, that they are of the same provenance: Bridge View, Presidio, Desert Highway.

Scott Yeskel possesses a B.F.A from the Academy of Art College in San Francisco. This will be his second solo show at the Jack Fischer Gallery.

The show will open on the 7th of July, with an opening reception for the artist on Saturday the 9th from 3:00 to 5:00. Mapping California will remain on view until August 20th.

SHOW DETAILS

The Jack Fischer Gallery would like to announce the opening of a show held in cooperation with Creative Growth, Creativity Explored, and the National Institute of Art and Disabilities (NIAD); three local nonprofit centers dedicated to the support of developmentally and physically disabled adult artists. Proceeds from the show will go back to the centers, allowing them to continue providing quality instruction, art supplies, and opportunities for exhibition to their artists. In the case of all three centers, the individuals who use their studio and gallery facilities represent a diversity of backgrounds, ages, and styles of expression.

Jack Fischer has a long history of working with these centers and their artists, such as Camille Holvoet, Aurie Ramirez, Rosita Pardo, and Thomas Pringle. This show will be themed around portraiture, and will exhibit responses to the human face in a variety of mediums.

The show will open on May 14th with a reception for the artists at the gallery from 3:00 to 5:00 p.m., and be on display until June 25th.

The Jack Fischer gallery is located at 49 Geary Street, suite 418, San Francisco, CA. It is open Tuesdays through Saturdays from 11:00 a.m to 5:30 p.m, as well as by appointment. For more information contact Jack Fischer at (415) 956-1178, or at info@jackfischergallery.com
