From '5 works of art to see in San Diego in March' (KPBS feature): On view at Quint ONE in Bread and Salt through Apr. 16, 2022 Thousands of toothpicks, and nothing else. Sculptor and "Genius Grant" recipient Tara Donovan's 2004 work, "Untitled (Toothpicks)" will be in town at Quint ONE in Logan Heights to baffle you in person. It's a feat of gravity and friction (and the repetitive properties of mass-produced consumer goods), Donovan has formed a massive cube that even in the humblest of photographs looks unreal. And the scale is kind of the point: how many toothpicks does it take before we no longer register it as a toothpick? Toothpicks will "shed" throughout the course of the installation and the composition of the cube will naturally shift. To protect it, the gallery will keep the doors closed. If you visit during Bread and Salt open hours, you can still peek through the doors' narrow windows, or you can make an appointment at info@quintgallery.com — or check it out on Saturday, Mar. 5 from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. during the ICE Gallery reception for Jamie Franks. —Julia Dixon Evans, KPBS Quint ONE, 1955 Julian Ave., Logan Heights.
