Johnny Abrahams: The Hare Beneath The Harrow

When: Tuesdays-Saturdays. Continues through Oct. 26 2019
Abrahams' paintings are oil-on canvas abstractions, characterized by large geometric forms painted on raw canvas in black, dark blue or red. Through repetition and subtle interactions between the void and painted form, the sharp compositions focus on structure, rhythm, gravity and negative space. Spreading the oil paint across the painting with a giant palette knife, slight and arbitrary ridges present upon Abrahams’ surfaces that at first appear to be smooth and flat. This process results in an accidental language of movement and depth within the clean, pure abstractions

  • clipping at Brava Theater Sept. 11
    Sub Pop recording artists 'clipping.' brought their brand of noise-driven experimental hip hop to the closing night of 2016's San Francisco Electronic Music Fest this past Sunday. The packed Brava Theater hosted an initially seated crowd that ended the night jumping and dancing against the front of the stage. The trio performed a set focused on their recently released Sci-Fi Horror concept album, 'Splendor & Misery', then delved into their dancier and more aggressive back catalogue, and recent single 'Wriggle'. Opening performances included local experimental electronic duo 'Tujurikkuja' and computer music artist 'Madalyn Merkey.'"
