Isabel Samaras' Making A Better Yesterday Today opens at Varnish Fine Art, 16 Jessie St., #C120, in San Francisco November 3 and runs through December 22, 2012. The gallery divides into two spaces for this exhibit--one for yesterday and the other for today. These works are essentially "mash-ups" or the visual equivalent. Oil paintings and print from the pop artist feature images from work never shown before in San Francisco.
Her works mythologize faces we all know from pop culture, especially television of yesteryear. But Samaras brings more to the table than just paintings of Lucille Ball. She adds to the images both stylistically and brings these characters new life.
Her works are usually small but there are also large pieces made for this exhibition. If you are in the area be sure to see the exhibit.
