Rebar Brand Canned Gallery Space, Southern Exposure, 2006

Tin can, Southern Exposure gallery wall, mineral oil
Edition of 300
$20

In response to the concept of "Between the Walls" the final exhibition in 2006 before Southern Exposure temporarily moved for seismic retrofitting and renovation and in celebration of Southern Exposure’s rich 32 year history in its space, open source artist collective, Rebar, created EnCanment - a temporary canning operation that harvested, processed and canned the gallery itself. Rebar systematically mapped and cored sections of the gallery wall and canned the cores in metal cans, on-site during the opening and closing night events. The cans were then labeled and numbered and are available for sale. By purchasing a can of Southern Exposure, you will become part owner of the gallery itself.

4- Michael Arcega

Theirs and Arse, 2006

Michael Arcega
Theirs and Arse, 2006
Hand colored etching 20” x 12”
Edition of 20, Edition Varie
$1000

Through other projects that explore implements of control and working with medieval icons, Michael Arcega came to realize that cartography was one of the most powerful tools of domination. Maps allowed the powerful states and nations to be able to divide the globe at their will regardless of the populations that dwell in those lands. Arcega’s hand colored etching, "Theirs and Arse" (Arse is a clever play on the word, Ours) exaggerates and satirizes the arbitrary borders and names that have been drawn since the early days of cartography.

Special Thanks to Kala Art Institute for helping to produce this edition.
Special thanks also to Heather Marx Gallery.

Julio Cesar Morales
Eruption 78-04, 2004
Digital image on acid-free paper and permanent pigment inks, 10"x24"
Edition of 20
$300

In this limited edition by artist Julio Cesar Morales, the artist replaces the sound waves from Eddie Van Halen's seminal guitar solo in his 1978 song, Eruption, with a crowd entangled in a heavy metal frenzy. Morales considered this work to be a non-nostalgic exploration of his own heavy metal roots. The image reconsiders the collective behaviors of crowds, both ritualistic and revolutionary in this contemporary milieu.

Special thanks to the Blow Up Lab for co-producing the limited edition with Southern Exposure and Julio Morales.

Jonn Herschend
Another Fine Mess (Part 1), Another Fine Mess (Part 2), 2009
Jonn Herschend is interested in the bare elements of narrative structure that occur when emotional confusion and absurdity play out in the everyday. For Bellwether, Southern Exposure has commissioned a new work from Herschend entitled Another Fine Mess, Parts 1 & 2. The project will consist of a video production resulting in a major new 20-minute HD video, a gallery installation. a public art project, a commissioned essay, and public event. The work will be presented at Southern Exposure from October 17 – December 12, 2009. Another Fine Mess is one of ten new projects SoEx has commissioned for Bellwether, the inaugural exhibition in its new building that explores speculative futures and the unknown.

Another Fine Mess (Part 1): Embrace of the Irrational includes an installation, within which, the new video “Embrace of the Irrational: Lessons from the Romantic Movement of the 18th & 19th Centuries, by Martin Thebes”, hosted by Martin Thebes will be screened. The story begins as a straightforward educational video about the importance of irrationality and confusion in the lives and works of the Romantics but becomes mired in technical and personal crisis, resulting in an accidental desecration of a museum object, a fight in the forest, and a desire for real truth in the most mundane actions of our day. The video was filmed on location, over 3 days in the summer of 2009 with a local cast and crew, at sites throughout the Bay Area.

Another Fine Mess (Part 2) is a public art project in the form of a small airplane that will fly over the city towing a sign that reads “I’m Sorry.” This simple yet profound gesture in the sky is possibly the explanation to everything. With that one well-intentioned phrase, any number of people could for a moment forgive.
