Christine Frerichs at 101 California
May 6 - July 1, 2017
101 California Street, San Francisco, CA 94111
In 1982 Philip Johnson and others designed and built the granite and glass structure at 101 California Street in San Francisco. I had the opportunity to exhibit five of my paintings in the public entrance for two months. I had no idea how my work would make sense with this space, but have been excited by the visual and conceptual overlaps in terms of the interest in simplified forms, repetition and revealing the inherent abstraction in nature. Also fascinating to me has been Johnson's use of glass, and his apparent interest in connecting the outside to the inside. Shelter, but also transparency and exposure. Below are images of my work installed in the space, as well as images of the exterior of Johnson's building.
