The San Francisco Studio School maintains a gallery presenting exhibitions related to the involvements and philosophy of the school. A juried national competition is also exhibited annually. Values: Drawing & Photography December 2006 through February 2007 Open to the public This exhibition at the San Francisco Studio School gallery reflects the range of interests emphasized by the school through a diverse group of work. Artists shown include Aaron Siskind, William Klein, Philip Pearlstein, Lazlo Moholy-Nagy, Robert Henri, Bernard Plossu, Josef Koudelka, Oliver Gagliani, Pauletta M. Chanco, Lon Clark and Laura Harden. The exhibition presents visual art across a spectrum representing different disciplines from painting to documentary photography, unified by the intensity or clarity of the artist's statement through visual means. Conceptual or narrative concerns are realized through a deep individual involvement with the nature of the medium. The exhibition, which shows work created over the period of a century serves to remind the viewer of the difference between art created as an autonomous entity versus art subordinated to the external pressures of illustration, style or trend.
