Carissa Potter - Making Being Here Enough
A Virtual Exhibition 24 Jul - 16 Dec 2020 This past week, Potter opened Making Being Here Enough, a virtual show at Eleanor Harwood Gallery, San Francisco, of sumi ink works that touch on these needed intimate moments with each other in the face of continued adversity around us. Even though many of these speak to a timelessness, it's hard to look at them without the ominous cloud of Covid or the need for social justice reform. Potter herself recently became a mother of a child who needs extra care, and this the gallery notes so eloquently, “These paintings are made by a woman who has learned how to comfort herself.” From intertwined bodies to simple still-lifes to social distanced conversations and even solitary nude, the works quietly speak of acceptance and the need to be at peace with uncertainty.

Lee Materazzi – I Fucking Love You
7 Mar - 17 Jul 2020 Eleanor Harwood Gallery is pleased to present I Fucking Love You, our first solo show with Lee Materazzi.
Materazzi works using medium format photography to document her own performance, installation, and sculpture. Her practice is hybridized, somewhere between performance and formal portraiture. Her use of compositions, color and form almost trick us into not seeing the conceptual content of her work. The seductive bright colors ease us into looking, and then the images point us to the deeper considerations within her work. The bending, the pretzeling of motherhood, and womanhood is so much what these works are about. Read more -
