Irrational Exuberance (Asst. Colors)
Sight School presents "Irrational Exuberance (Asst. Colors)," an exhibition of new installation, sculpture and work on paper by Oakland-based visual artist Christine Wong Yap from May 14–June 12. Inspired by discount culture and popular psychology, the artist will transform Sight School into a colorful shop-like interior, populated by reconfigured discount shop materials. Sight School is an artist-run exhibition space directed by Michelle Blade. The space began from a desire to create dialogue around new modes of living and being in the world in order to reveal connections between art and life. The gallery is open Wednesdays thru Saturdays from noon to 5 pm. An opening reception will be held on Friday, May 14th, from 7 to 10 pm. A closing reception and dialogue, “As Is: Pop Art & Stuffhood” featuring special guests, including critic and curator Glen Helfand, will be held on Saturday, June 12, from 2 to 4 pm. All events are free and open to the public.
