SF Open Studios Marks 25 Years with Hundreds of Artists Participating

The San Francisco arts scene is vibrant with several key events highlighting local and regional artists. SF Open Studios, running through October 19, invites the public to explore hundreds of artists' studios across neighborhoods, complemented by exhibitions and guided tours at SOMArts. Francisco Mora's solo exhibition "X Borders II" in South Pasadena showcases his experimental abstract works, marking his return to gallery art after a career in animation and design. In San Diego, the "REMANENCE" exhibit presents abstract works exploring memory and reality by artists Juan Cabrera and Melissa Walter. Marin’s Sausalito Center for the Arts features "Perspectives/SF," a group show of artists from the iconic 1890 Bryant Street Studios, offering diverse artworks from sculptures to abstract paintings. Additionally, San Francisco Museum of Modern Art is displaying Arthur Tress's 1974 "shadow series," a photographic narrative blending reality and fantasy through staged tableaux.
