Over the past 25 years, OMA has presented over 300 diverse and engaging exhibitions that reflect their core interest to explore the stories of Southern California artists. Legacy: 25 Years of Art and Community is a survey of artwork selected from many of OMA’s past exhibitions. Compelling pieces from landmark community-building exhibits such as Worn with Pride (2000), Chouinard: A Living Legacy (2001), Artifacts: Allied Craftsmen of San Diego (2018), Lowbrow Art: Nine San Diego Pop Surrealists (2009), and Masterpieces of San Diego Painting: Fifty Works from Fifty Years, 1900-1950 (2008), will tell the story of how a volunteer-based organization grew from its humble beginnings in 1997 to the cultural destination it is today. Featuring work by James Hubbell, Wendy Murayama, William Glen Crooks, Allison Renshaw, Italo Scanga, and Charles Arnoldi, among others, this exhibition will create new narratives while remembering the seminal role OMA has played in the history of contemporary art in our region.

BFree presents Time for Women Artists (TWA)’s newest group show, “Turning Tides” this summer. The group will showcase their individual visions of what the theme means to them: ebb and flow, change, transition, the sea—and more. The works are in a range of sizes and media. The exhibition will present works by all 12 TWA group members, showcasing their individual visions of what “Turning Tides” means to them. As we head into a changed world, post-pandemic and with social and political shifts, these are expressions of hope during transition, of ways to move forward, of the force of the spirit and the resilience of nature. The works are in a range of media: from textiles to painting, ceramic and bronze sculpture to mixed media, and in many styles, from abstract to whimsical to realism. The group has been working and showing together for 6 years, and were recently featured at the Oceanside Museum of Art in an exhibition titled “Now.” Member artists also show individually, in galleries and museums on both coasts, and their work is held in corporate and private collections worldwide.

Director: S. S. Rajamouli Run Time: 187 min. Release Year: 2022 Language: Telugu w/ English subtitles Starring: Ajay Devgn, Alia Bhatt, N.T. Rama Rao Jr., Ram Charan, Ray Stevenson This film is part of FOR YOUR CONSIDERATION, an on-going series featuring some of the best films of the year you may have missed during their initial runs in cinemas. Synopsis: Back on the big screen where it belongs for an #encoRRRe, RRR is an exhilarating, action-packed spectacular mythologizing two real-life freedom fighters who helped lead India’s fight for independence from the British Raj: Komaram Bheem (Jr NTR) and Alluri Sitarama Raju (Ram Charan). Set in the 1920s before their fight for India’s independence began, RRR imagines a fictional meeting between the two, set into motion when a young Gond girl is stolen from her village by British soldiers. With a powerful message, staggeringly choreographed action sequences, and an all-timer (or three) of a musical number, RRR is sheer big-screen joy from start to finish, and audiences have one last chance to see it big and loud as intended. Critic Quotes: “To call this the best blockbuster of 2022 is only partially accurate; it’s really several of the best blockbusters, plural, you’re apt to catch this year.” – Rolling Stone “RRR is maximum cinema, the kind of in-your-face, colorful, fiery, loud, awe-inspiring experience you really can only get from the movies.” – Slate “The thrill of RRR is not the density of its storytelling, though — it’s the exuberance of it.” – The Atlantic “You won’t be bored for a nanosecond” – Hollywood Reporter Stay Social!
