  • 'Small Acts: The Craft of Subversion'
    Opening reception: Saturday March 12 5-7 p.m. From San Diego weekend arts events (KPBS feature): Art magazine Craft Desert — the brainchild of Kerianne Quick and Adam John Manley — has curated their first art exhibition, at City College's City Gallery. I love craft almost as much as I love the "subversive nature of craft," and this exhibition hones in on how both literal and figurative small actions can make an impact. Literal in that these works had to be small enough to fit in a USPS flat rate mailer, and figurative in that the societal concept of crafts is, in general, dismissive or reductive. The artist list is massive (I counted 60!), including Georgina Treviño, Matthew Hebert, Diana Benavídez, Michelle Montjoy, Luciano Pimienta, Carlos Ramirez, Lynn Susholtz, Sasha Koozel Reibstein and tons more. —Julia Dixon Evans, KPBS From the organizers: On view Mar. 12 through Apr. 13, 2022 Gallery hours: Tuesday through Thursday, noon to 4 p.m. SMALL ACTS is a curatorial collaboration between SDSU professors Kerianne Quick and Adam John Manley. The exhibition brings together artists and craftspeople whose work explores the subversive nature of craft. Works by more than 60 artists/craftspeople from across North America address the theme of subversion through a range of approaches, processes, and media. To emphasize the power of even the smallest actions, the scale of the work was limited to that which could be shipped in a small, medium, or large USPS Priority Flat Rate mailer.
