furry family @ rare device.
if you’re in the bay area this friday evening (november 6th), be sure to stop by rare device for an amazing new show from artists Amy Ruppel and Lisa Congdon, Gently by the horns. Lisa and Amy have put together a show paying homage to one of their favorite animal groups: the cloven hoofed, horned, furry creatures that belong to the family Bovidae. They each chose five different Bovids to render in their own own style, including the Yak, Duiker, Bongo and Chamois. The installation will also include horns and antlers from our collections and a fake fur chandelier.

Bonding Experience @ Rare Device.
Rare Device is one of my favorite stores and galleries in San Francisco, that features functional experiments and original ideas in art, design, craft and fabrication. Owners Rena Tom and Lisa Congdon constantly seek out objects that are beautiful, evocative, well constructed and thoughtful. And this week Rare Device is excited to share with you a new show: Binding Constant: New Work by Diem Chau, Marina Luz and Lisa Solomon. The work will appear in the Rare Device gallery from October 2 – November 1, with an opening party this Friday, October 2nd.
A reception for the artists will be held at Rare Device Friday, October 2 from 7 – 9 pm, with all three artists present for the opening. In Binding Constant artists Diem Chau, Marina Luz and Lisa Solomon explore the visible and invisible bonds we share based on relationship or causal connection. Hope to see you there!
