Declarations for the New Year" at Southern Exposure
Exhibition on view: January 9 – 30, 2016
Closing Reception: Saturday, January 30, 2016
Gallery Hours: Tuesday – Saturday, 12:00 – 6:00 PM
Southern Exposure and Related Tactics Collective (Michele Carlson, Weston Teruya, and Nate Watson) invite 40 artists, writers, cultural producers, and civic-minded instigators to make short declarations or calls to action for 2016. The exhibition is the second iteration of our successful 4x40 group program.
Declarations will manifest in four separate forms – posters designed by Shawn Tamaribuchi, postcards, buttons, and radical mapping – so that audiences may take away these messages as provocations or reminders to post at home, send to a friend, and wear on their body. With this gathering of provocations, we aim to spark a dialogue to carry us forward in the coming year.

Hungry Ghosts Presented by
The Asian American Women Artist Association (AAWAA), Asian Pacific Islander Cultural Center (APICC), and Manilatown Heritage Foundation are co-presenting the exhibiton.
Dates: April 2nd – April 29th, 2015
Location: I-Hotel Manilatown Center Gallery, 868 Kearny St. San Francisco, CA 94108
Hours: Wednesdays – Sundays, 1:00 – 6:00PM
Opening Reception: April 2nd, 2015, 6pm – 9:00pm
Closing Reception, Literary Reading & Community Potluck: April 29th, 2015, 6pm – 9:00pm
Admission to the exhibition is free and open to the public, with a suggested donation for the Opening and Closing Receptions.
The concept of “Hungry Ghosts” is common throughout many Asian cultures and religions. It typically refers to the lost spirit of a deceitful, jealous or greedy person or someone who died in a violent or unhappy way. These hungry ghosts roam the earth burdened by unmet needs, insatiable hungers, and intense desires often for a particular substance or object. Placating these ghosts often involves special ceremonies and offerings of fine food, “ghost money”, burning incense, and candles.
The Hungry Ghosts exhibition explores the unsatiated ghosts of our individual and collective historical struggles and the ways they continue to haunt us today. In the era “after identity politics” when many have been quick to proclaim America as being “Post-Racial” or “Post-Feminist”, we have seen the specters of unresolved struggles with racism, sexism, homophobia, and economic inequities re-emerge into public consciousness in both overtly violent and subtle ways. Illuminating these shape-shifting specters (and their illusive progeny) of historical struggles, the artists in this exhibition will serve as mediums for our Hungry Ghosts.
