San Francisco, 1941). Poon’s career spans from the 1960s to the present, and along with her artistic production she also organized exhibitions for the Chinese Historical Society of America, celebrating the work of artists including Jade Snow Wong, Benjamen Chinn, and Martin Wong. Poon was one of the co-curators of the <em>With New Eyes: toward an Asian American art history in the west</em> exhibition at SF State in 1995, sparking a new dialogue about the influence of Asian American artists on contemporary art practice in the US. She is an alum of SF State and before her retirement was the longtime Slide Librarian/Digital Media Specialist for the School of Art. Along with her own work we will present highlights from Poon’s photography collection, an excellent representation of vintage photography, including work by Ansel Adams, Walker Evans, Minor White, Don Worth, Wright Morris, Imogen Cunningham, Charles Wong, and Benjamen Chinn, among others.</p> <p>Visitors will be required to reserve tickets in advance, and to bring proof of vaccination with them when they visit. Masks are required indoors.</p> <p>Regular Gallery Hours: Tuesday through Friday, 12noon to 4pm + open Saturdays July 2nd &amp; 16th</p> <p>Opening Reception: Saturday, July 2, 1 to 3pm. </p> <p>This exhibition is supported by the University's Instructionally Related Student Activities Fund.</p> <p><em>Photo credit: Irene Poon, Memories of the Universal Café (1965)</em></p> </div> </div> <p>Tags</p> <div class="tags-item"> <ul class="list-inline"> <li > <a href="/tags/tags/past-exhibition" hreflang="en">Past Exhibition</a></li> </ul> </div> </div> </div> Wed, 16 Feb 2022 20:17:39 +0000 Alexis Cabrera 61 at https://gallery.sfsu.edu
