Forty years have passed since Vincent Chin was killed. But today's wave of hate incidents against Asian Americans make what happened in 1982 even more relevant in the fight for civil rights.

Joseph Bellows Gallery is pleased to announce its upcoming group exhibition, San Diego Views. Based on the regional twelve print portfolio published by Photographs Incorporated, the exhibition will feature the portfolio in the gallery’s atrium space while expanding and giving context to the artists’ work with an extended group show in the main gallery. This unique exhibition will run May 2 to Jun. 10, with an opening reception Friday, May 6 from 5–8 p.m. San Diego Views showcases the photographic work of scott b. davis, John Hogan, Suda House, Adriene Hughes, Farrah Karapetian, Stephen Arthur Milner, Michael Mulno, Han Nguyen, Philipp Scholz Rittermann, Paul Turounet, Rebecca Webb, and Joe Yorty. Rather than attempting to define a particular local style or shared thematic concern, the diverse pursuits of the participating artists provide a spectrum to view and celebrate contemporary photography in San Diego. Though each of the twelve photographers approaches the medium differently, their objectives are realized with care and an astute rendering of the photographic object itself, conveying the printed picture's specific meanings and inherent qualities. San Diego Views offers the unique perceptions of each artist by defining a particular subject within the wide-ranging field of their elected medium. San Diego Views will be on display during the Medium Festival of Photography to support local photographers. For more information, please visit the gallery’s website at www.josephbellows.com.

THIS SHOW IS CANCELED One family. One holiday. Four millennia. The Levi-Katz family celebrates Passover again and again—1416 BCE, 1954, 2019 and 2050 to be exact! While the time, location, and language changes, the traditions stay the same. Over matzah ball soup and (vegan) brisket, this close-knit clan contends with questions of race, religion, and inter-generational trauma. The present echoes the past—and the past the present—as the family repeatedly reenacts the exodus from Egypt, each time asking themselves: must we define ourselves through trauma? Will we ever be free? And why is this night different from all other nights? Written by San Diegan Ali Viterbi, "In Every Generation" has already received several awards, including the 2019 National Jewish Playwriting Contest and two Kennedy Center awards in 2020. The highly-anticipated world premiere of this enthralling and touching family saga is not to be missed. "Tender and honest… Ali Viterbi has spread her wings and is soaring.” -San Diego Jewish World "…not only a very human family saga, but also a timely warning about the choices that American Jews face in the present moment." -Howard Shalwaltz, Founding Artistic Director, Woolly Mammoth Theatre Company Visit San Diego Repertory Theatre on Facebook
