Sparks Gallery

Sparks Gallery is celebrating excellence in craftsmanship in the upcoming exhibition entitled "Craftwork". Artwork on view will include pieces in wood, metal, ceramic, and textile. Each artist in the show has been selected for their attention to detail, contemporary presentation of materials, and their residence: all are San Diego artists.

In celebration of Chapter Two of our 2018 Gallery Selections Exhibition, Sparks Gallery will host an evening of artistic creation on Saturday, August 25th from 6pm – 9pm. Live painting and a fresh look at new works from each of our six featured artists are all part of the evening’s festivities. Join us to explore surrealist collage by Perry Vasquez, Fibonacci-inspired painting from Paul Hobson, Khalid Alkaaby’s arresting nudes, new illustrations inspired by the “wild women” mythology from Marissa Quinn, Brady Willmott’s enigmatic oil paintings, and the West Coast debut of Monty Montgomery’s Kaleidoskull collaboration with Tony Philippou. The exhibition will be open August 4 - October 7, but please note the reception will be held on August 25.

Sparks Gallery is pleased to announce San Diego artist Richard Becker’s Solo Show “Float” with an opening reception on Saturday, August 4, 2018 from 6 pm to 9 pm. Known for his figurative bronze sculpture and stainless steel monuments, Becker’s new works in “Float” reveal a dramatic shift in style, subject and material choice following the artist’s re-entry into the world of hearing via a cochlear implant after years of near total deafness.
