Dad is a notable
survey of recent work by Danish artist Jakob S.
Boeskov, beginning to garner significant attention
in the US and abroad, presenting socially relevant artwork
utilizing filmmaking, drawing, sculpture, and performance,
to explore male behavior, the complexity of war, politics,
biotechnology, and globalization, with particular regard
to Danish culture and its standing abroad. A major
component of this exhibition is a CAF commissioned video
in which the artist will play his father to a soundtrack
of the drone band Black Angels from Austin, TX.

Mack's conceptual projects explore the way that art
can facilitate a sense of community among strangers,
engaging others in friendly one-to-one contact. For
this exhibition, the artist will place her artworks
in private homes throughout Santa Barbara and lead
tours of these domestic settings.

Russom Tomorrow Belongs to Me
In their sculptures and installations, Gonzalez and
Russom explore the forces of magic on earth via simple
modular forms made in Formica. The sculptures
are often arranged to suggest a range of images, from
minimal sculpture to failed architectural experiments
to vanity mirrors. The duo also imbed analog synthesizers
that play meditative, repetitive sound, based on the
settings of knobs on controls panel built into each
of the works
