Looking Back: 45 Years
John Berggruen Gallery is pleased to present a landmark exhibition Looking Back: 45 Years, celebrating 45 years the gallery has been in business and its commitment to the artistic and contemporary cultural environment of San Francisco and beyond. This exhibition will occupy both floors of the gallery and will be accompanied by an illustrated catalog. It will be on view from October 9 – November 25, 2015.
By bringing together historical works the gallery has exhibited and placed in private and public collections alike since opening its doors in 1970, this show presents an important selection of significant examples from the 20th and 21st Century movements in modernism, ranging from Abstract Expressionism, Pop, and Bay Area Figurative and is represented by paintings, drawings and sculpture.
This show not only tells a story of John Berggruen Gallery's extensive exhibition and acquisition history, but also explores how dynamic the collecting passion and commitment to the development of the arts and institutions of San Francisco and beyond has been.
