Chimera: Fabrications of the Mind
Curated by Matthew Boyko and Collin Burry
January 14 - March 26, 2010
Exhibition is viewable during Gensler office hours(9-5) and by appointment.
Gensler’s 2010 Art Program kicks off with Chimera: Fabrications of the Mind, an exhibition balancing the creative imaginations of 14 artists within the walls of this global design firm. From Greek mythology, the Chimera was a fire-breathing monster composed of a lion’s head, a goat’s body and serpent’s tail. The Chimera represents a fabricated illusion, a composite character wrought from the imagination. Here the imaginary and creative re-use flourish within the realms of fantasy, desire and appropriation. The artists presented offer this familiar vision; the constructed world of popular character, storyline and fantastic illusion. Chimera: Fabrications of the Mind extends throughout Gensler’s San Francisco office, impregnating the site with fanciful creations while providing exceptional representations of the real and the unreal.
Participating artists include: Luke Butler, James Chronister, Alex Clausen, Roger Dean, Travis Kerkela, Bessma Khalaf, Nicole Hayden, Vanessa Marsh, Carson Murdach, Jeff Segal, Zachary Scholz, Ryan Thayer, Skye Thorstenson, Jamie Vasta
Address: Gensler, 2 Harrison Street, Suite 400, San Francisco, CA 94105
