People: Artists’ Responses
to Homelessness from the New Deal to the Present
San Francisco, CA—The
tragedy of homelessness and poverty in the United States
over the last 75 years - and the government’s role
in responding to the crisis - is presented in the compelling
and timely
exhibition and tour of “Hobos to Street People:
Artists’ Response to Homelessness from the New
Deal to
the Present." The first exhibition of its kind
to look at homelessness through art, it is presented
by the
California Exhibition Resources Alliance (CERA) and
will premiere at the California Historical Society,
in
San Francisco, California, February 19 – August
15, 2009. Curated by Art Hazelwood, the exhibition
features the work of 30 artists including New Deal
era artists such as Dorothea Lange, Rockwell Kent,
and Giacomo Patri along with contemporary artists such
as Sandow Birk, David Bacon, and Christine
Hanlon. Through painting, printmaking, photography,
and mixed media, these Depression-era and
contemporary artists offer stark glimpses of life on
the street and show many similarities between the eras...
