SUMMARY:Art Calendar: L. Song Wu: Feast at Johansson Projects (Oakland) | Nov. 7–Dec. 31\, 2025
DESCRIPTION:L. Song Wu: Feast | Nov. 7–Dec. 31\, 2025\n\nEvent Details\nFeast at Johansson Projects is a solo exhibition by L. Song Wu that unfolds like an Italian full-course meal\, exploring the sensual\, performative\, and unsettling nature of eating and consumption. Each painting evokes the exaggerated intimacy of mukbang videos—overflowing with surreal abundance\, absurd beauty\, and emotional detachment. Drawing from Wu’s cross-cultural experiences across the U.S.\, China\, and Italy\, the works reflect how food\, desire\, and identity intertwine through race\, gender\, and class. At once seductive and grotesque\, Feast invites viewers to consider what it means to consume—and to be consumed—in a world of endless appetites. \nEvent Dates & Hours \nFeast is on view at Johansson Projects (Oakland) from November 8–December 31\, 2025. *Opening on evening of November 7\, 2025. \n*The gallery is open Thursday–Saturday from 1:00 p.m.–5:00p.m.

SUMMARY:Art Calendar: Auudi Dorsey: What’s Left\, Never Left at Jonathan Carver Moore (Tenderloin SF) | Oct. 9–Dec. 20\, 2025
DESCRIPTION:Auudi Dorsey: What’s Left\, Never Left | Oct. 9–Dec. 20\, 2025\n\nEvent Details\nJonathan Carver Moore’s What’s Left\, Never Left\, is a solo exhibition by New Orleans-based artist Auudi Dorsey\, featuring a powerful new body of work created during his six-week residency at the gallery. Expanding on his research into the intertwined histories of African American communities and water\, Dorsey’s largest paintings to date reimagine lost leisure spaces that once fostered joy\, resilience\, and belonging. Drawing from archival photographs\, his work centers the experiences of African women and reflects on the generational loss of swimming traditions—challenging narratives that distance Black communities from aquatic life. Through a deeply intuitive\, Southern-rooted visual language\, What’s Left\, Never Left offers a moving meditation on memory\, reclamation\, and cultural empowerment.. \nEvent Dates & Hours \nAuudi Dorsey: What’s Left\, Never Left is on view at Jonathan Carver Moore (Tenderloin SF) from October 9–December 20\, 2025. \n*The gallery is open Thursday and Friday 12:00 p.m.–6:00 pm.; Saturday 12:00 p.m.–4:00 p.m. and by appointment.
