Marking Time @ Harvey Milk Photo Center

I am excited to announce I will be participating in this 20th anniversary BAPC show curated by Meg Shiffler. I will be exhibiting images from my Rapid Express series.

 

Marking Time
20th Anniversary Exhibition of the Bay Area Photographers Collective
curated by Meg Shiffler 

  • Exhibition dates: September 26 – October 26, 2019
  • Opening Reception: Thursday, September 26, 6 – 8pm
  • Meetup: October 12, 2-4pm   I won’t be in town for the opening but I will be at the gallery for this informal meetup (Facebook event)
  • October 26, 2-4pm Closing day Meetup hosted by Rose Borden (Facebook)
  • Gallery hours: (closed Mon & Fri)
    • Tues 3-9:30
    • Wed 5-9:30
    • Thurs 3-9:30

  • Location: Harvey Milk Photography Center, 50 Scott Street, San Francisco CA 94117 (website)

In addition to the curated exhibit, a selection of photographs from BAPC founders and a nifty timeline of BAPC’s 20-year run will be on display. The timeline encompasses an important part of my own history as an artist over the last decade.  It will be printed in the exhibition catalog and also presented in a large format on the wall.

About the exhibit (by curator Meg Shiffler)

“What you have caught on film is captured forever…
it remembers everything, long after you have
forgotten everything.” – Aaron Siskind

“How do we mark time? We all do it. Humans compulsively invent new ways to drop pins in the flow of time so that as much of life as possible takes root in our personal memories and collective consciousness. On the occasion of Bay Area Photographers Collective’s 20th anniversary, Marking Time honors the founders and celebrates the vibrancy and diversity of the current membership through recent works that highlight our relationships to each other, the built and natural world, and photography itself.

Each photographer in this exhibition is a visual storyteller, and has marked time by taking a dynamic role in defining a moment, a perfect moment. Members’ works take viewers to a New Orleans cemetery, fields in California’s Central Valley, and the streets of Mexico City. We meet elders from India, transit riders in San Francisco, dancers at a recital, and gamers at play. There are panoramic images that slice a scene into fragments that physically reflect time and speed, and abstract works created with fast shutter speeds followed by slow, sculptural manipulations of the resulting prints.

It is truly remarkable that this artists’ collective has not only endured, but thrived for twenty years. It’s my honor to have worked with every member to curate this anniversary exhibition.”

 

Exhibiting artists (current members of BAPC):
Jason Andrescavage, Rose Borden, Tamara Danoyan, Anthony Delgado, Gene Dominique, Richard Dweck, Dan Fenstermacher, Linda Fitch, Steve Goldband, Ralf Hillebrand, Ken Hoffman, Ellen Konar, Philip Krayna, Tom Lavin, Dan Lythcott-Haims, Mitch Nelles, Ari Salomon, Angelika Schilli, Cindy Stokes, Rusty Weston, and Nick Winkworth

Tonight we had the pleasure of hosting Mark Citret Tonight we had the pleasure of hosting Mark Citret for a deep dive into his five-decade career. It was a rare treat to see the evolution of a single image across silver gelatin, platinum, and inkjet prints—a true masterclass in how the medium shapes the message. Mark’s work is a testament to the art of “quietly seeing,” finding profound beauty in the overlooked corners of our world through a lifelong commitment to black-and-white photography. Truly inspired by his patience and his eye. 📷✨

I'm honored to be on the Host Committee for First I'm honored to be on the Host Committee for First Exposures' annual art auction and youth exhibition fundraiser: Looking Forward, Giving Back.

First Exposures has been doing remarkable work in San Francisco for over 30 years. Based in the Mission District, they offer free photography classes and 1:1 mentoring for youth ages 11-18, helping them find their voice and build self-confidence.

If you care about empowering youth to thrive, express themselves creatively, and connect with their communities, support this transformational program!

Mark your calendars for Thursday, May 7, 2026 and join me at SOMArts Cultural Center in celebrating the work of some amazing youth photographers, their mentors, and several local community artists.
