Press Release - LA: November Group Exhibition

pt.2 is pleased to present a group show by Benn Quinn, Caleb Hahne, Lena Gustafson, Liz Hernández, Maria Paz, Paige Valentine, Ryan Whelan, and Sam Spano. Much of the work presented in this show addresses place, home, and belonging through quotidian themes; details of the natural world, food, memory, human interaction, daily tasks, and a search for beauty in uncertain times.

Press Release - "Provisions" by Liz Hernández & Ryan Whelan

Part 2 Gallery is proud to present Provisions, an exhibition of paintings from Oakland-based artists Liz Hernández and Ryan Whelan. The show is a meditation on the transformative experience of food, and the married duo examines the disruptive power of providing for those you love, to slow down a busy life and make a meal. Integral to that examination are the places that give us provisions. Learn more after the jump.

Studio Visit / Interview with Liz Hernandez and Ryan Whelan

A few weeks back we visited the studio of Oakland based artists Liz Hernandez and Ryan Whelan as they prepare a new series of paintings for "Provisions" opening this November at Part 2 Gallery. We spent time talking about how they impact each others process, where the title of the exhibition stems from and outside inspirations for their new body of works. Learn more after the jump.
