Jack Carter Background Those books and portfolios on the table are a sample of lines and art I have combined over the past few years: Painted Words. Writing begins the process and is later illustrated. I write my impressions of where I am, wherever I go: San Rafael, San Francisco, Sonoma County - my daily haunts. These thoughts combine to establish a point-of-departure, a running commentary, a memoir, a mosaic of observations and beliefs, sprinkled with what I call poetry. I write comments as I sit upstairs at Vesuvio Cafe on Columbus Avenue in the City staring at the Marconi Hotel's torn window shades, the No Name Bar or Matteucci's in Marin, the San Francisco Library, where the Homeless come to hang out and freshen up, and on benches, or leaning on walls, sitting on a curb or stretched out against a Hawthorne. Names of these one-of-a-kind books or portfolios, of which there are more then 100, include "Ode to the Joy of Quitting" and "In Defense of Hypocrisy" Static Progression Sculptures and Vessels by Jason Dunn
Entanglements The exhibition includes work from artists, Julia Goodman, Amy Keefer, Ali Naschke-Messing, Esther Traugot, and Anneliese Vobis, many of which are sitespecific pieces. These artists are all up and coming exciting new artists working in the field of textile arts, and have finished their graduate work at the California College of the Arts, except for Esther Traugot who just graduated from Mills College. They each provide a new insight in the use of fiber in order to express strong conceptual ideas in their art. The motivation behind the work often borders on community and social interaction, the inventiveness of science, nostalgia and the phenomena of fiber itself. As a group they are eclectic and represent some of the exciting new approaches in the art field today.
