We are excited to announce our upcoming solo exhibition of works by Susan Weil (b. 1930). Susan will be attending the opening reception on March 14th from 6–8pm.
A pioneering New York-based artist, Susan has been working for eight decades, yet has not received the full recognition she so richly deserves. She studied at Black Mountain College and was part of an influential circle that included her friends Ruth Asawa, Elaine de Kooning, and Dorothea Rockburne. Now 94, she continues to create poignant, powerful work, and our show will span from the 1960s to the present day.
Given that COL Gallery is located in Ghirardelli Square—home to Ruth Asawa’s first public sculpture, the Andrea fountain—we find it especially meaningful to highlight the connection between these two remarkable artists. Both worked quietly and persistently in relative obscurity until recent years, and we are thrilled to bring Susan’s contributions further into the spotlight.
Please join us opening night to meet Susan and see our exhibition which spans the 1960s to today.
