state is pleased to announce Present Through a Rear-View Mirror by San Francisco-based artist Rachelle Reichert. Presented as a parallel solo exhibition in tandem with Black Crown Gallery's Backward Into the Future, this exhibition is the culmination of "Summer Home", state’s first ever residency program in which Reichert was chosen to create work on-site in the month leading up her exhibition. Present Through a Rear-View Mirror is a collection of new works--primarily made of salt, graphite and rust--that address ideas about raw materials and their extractive economies. The artist offers a close reading of material by facilitating its decay, corrosion and metamorphosis. This careful way of looking draws both inspiration from and a contrast to technological forms of vision utilized in the exploitation of materials. Present Through a Rear-View Mirror will be on view from August 5 - September 23 with an opening reception on Saturday August 5 from 6-8 PM with the artist in attendance. Backward Into the Future at Black Crown Gallery is on view from September 8 - October 14.
