BARRY McGEE
Headlands AIR '04

Untitled
2006

Silkscreen
11"  x  14"


Untitled
Barry McGee's drawings, paintings, and mixed-media installations take their inspiration from contemporary urban culture, and incorporate such elements as empty liquor bottles and spray-paint cans, tagged signs, wrenches, and scrap wood or metal. He is also a graffiti artist who has honed his craft on the streets of America's cities since the 1980s and has translated that artistry to other surfaces. His trademark icon, a caricatured male figure with sagging eyes and a bemused expression, recalls the homeless and transient citizens who call the streets their home. His work has been shown at the Walker Art Center in Minneapolis, the SFMOMA, and the UCLA/Armand Hammer Museum, among many prominent venues. He received a 1996 SECA Award, as well as grants from the Louis Comfort Tiffany Foundation, the Creative Work Fund, and the Lila Wallace Reader's Digest Fund. McGee received a BFA in painting and printmaking from the San Francisco Art Institute.

Untitled
Painter Deborah Grant's collage-style canvasses pulsate with a kind of social energy rarely found on a flat surface. Pop culture icons, political heroes and anti-heroes, corporate logos, and religious imagery are layered into cohesive works with a "ferocious graphic quality". Her work has been exhibited at Real Art Ways, Hartford, CT; The Studio Museum of Harlem, Triple Candie, ArtOMI, all in New York; Inman@Lawing Gallery, Houston, TX; Post Gallery Los Angeles, and she has received a Skowhegan Fellowship and a Tides Foundation Grant. Grant received her BFA in Painting from Columbia College, IL, and her MFA in Painting from Tyler School of Art, Elkins, PA.


JOSEPHINE TAYLOR
Headlands AIR '04

Fight-Off Death
2006

Digital Pigment Print
11"  x  14"


Untitled
Josephine Taylor makes large scale, narrative drawings using diluted permanent ink washes on sheets of unframed, white paper. Her work examines the emotional and psychological residue of childhood and adolescence. Although her subject matter is intensely personal and rendered with a tender fragility, the monumental format defies any presupposition of intimacy. In 2004 she was a recipient of the prestigious San Francisco Museum of Modern Art SECA Award and was included in the California Biennial at the Orange Country Museum of Art. Her work has been exhibited throughout the San Francisco Bay Area and is in the permanent collections of San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, Fine Arts Museums of San Francisco, and Museum of Modern Art, New York. She lives and works in San Francisco.


YOON LEE
Headlands Tournesol Award Winner '05-'06

Evacuation Comp
2006

Digital Pigment Print
14"  x  5.5"


Untitled
Yoon Lee creates large-scale sintra panels of flowing abstractions, combining synthetic materials and vibrant colors with graceful, multi-layered fields that evoke natural phenomenon. With meticulous planning, she pours acrylic and latex paints onto panels in order to preserve a sense of the paint’s natural fluidity. The paintings are documents of the physical world, where the sense of gravity and rich textures dominate the plasticity of the materials. In 2005, Yoon Lee received her MFA in painting from the San Francisco Art Institute and was awarded the Tournesol Award and Artist in Residency for painting at Headlands Center for the Arts. She has shown her work most recently in San Francisco at the TransAmerica Center, Crucible Steel Gallery, The Lab, Hang Gallery, the Diego Rivera Gallery, and Catharine Clark Gallery. In the Summer of 2006 she had a solo show at the Luggage Store Gallery, SF in conjunction with her Tournesol Residency.
