Note: A previously announced opening reception scheduled for Jan. 8 has been canceled. The work will be viewable during regular gallery hours. From the gallery: About the installation: Quint Gallery’s ONE will begin 2022 with Roman de Salvo’s Electric Picnic Redux, originally created during a residency at San Diego’s Timken Museum in 2019 (pictured). Prompted to respond to works in their collection of European Old Masters, de Salvo chose Blindman’s Buff, a 1775 Rococo painting by Jean-Honoré Fragonard, and focused on a tree on which a whimsical group of French aristocracy play games and lounge about. In Electric Picnic, de Salvo used common modular hardware to rebuild this tree as a metal sculpture surrounded by benches for viewers to become active participants in the main hall of the museum. In this iteration, Electric Picnic Redux, de Salvo has replaced those benches in favor of placing the sculpture on an oak log base, as well as removed lights which originally stood in for the leaves and blossoms on Fragonard’s tree. Taken by itself, the work reflects the artist’s long standing curiosity in the duality of material: creating the ornate out of the utilitarian, and imbuing natural, raw material with electricity and modularity. About the artist: Roman de Salvo’s public art can be seen throughout San Diego, with his most recent commissioned work at Mission Trails Regional Park. Titled Fountain Mountain, this permanent work is a functioning water fountain built into a boulder carved with trail-like channels around its surface. De Salvo’s work has also been featured at the 2000 Biennial Exhibition at the Whitney Museum of American Art, the 2002 California Biennial at the Orange County Museum of Art, Baja to Vancouver: The West Coast in Contemporary Art at the Seattle Art Museum, Insite 2000 in Tijuana, Mexico, and Giverny Garden Projects at the Musée d'Art Américain, Giverny, France. He lives and works in San Diego. Related links: Quint ONE on Instagram Roman de Salvo on Instagram

Over the past decade, jazz pianist and Origin Records recording artist Danny Green has earned recognition as a bandleader and as a composer with a gift for spinning supple, absorbing narratives. Green’s growing portfolio of vibrant sounds – an enchanting mix of jazz, classical, and Brazilian rhythms – has captured the attention of critics around the world, including DownBeat Magazine, Jazziz, San Diego Union Tribune, the Boston Globe, and Public Radio International. Date | Monday, May 9, 2022 at 12pm Location | Athenaeum Music and Arts Library Free Event! It’s no small wonder that Green has earned two San Diego Music awards for Best Jazz Album and an additional award for Best Jazz Artist. His long-time trio includes bassist Justin Grinnell and drummer Julien Cantelm, noteworthy musicians in their own right, and together they have developed a nearly psychic connection as they perform Green’s original compositions and jazz standards. Green takes listeners on a journey that is equal parts introspective and exuberant, and always compelling. The concerts will be in person at the Athenaeum Music & Arts Library.
