Moleskine myDetour Project by Karen Day
On the last leg of its nearly month-long run, Moleskine's myDetour project will soon disperse from the bookshops and art supply stores in the San Francisco area it has been so creatively taking over.
The traveling project is a tribute to artists, writers and dedicated Moleskiners everywhere, but the talented San Francisco community played a role, donating their filled-in Moleskines to special drop boxes around the city which were then judged by the famed local industrial designer and architect Yves Behar.
Those in Sf can catch the last stateside showcase before the project moves on to Tokyo. For a full list of locations housing the exhibit, see the myDetour San Francisco website.

Bill Culbert: Light Sculpture
Pairing the humble plastic detergent bottle with the equally humble fluorescent light tube, Kiwi artist Bill Culbert's latest show features subtle re-workings of everyday objects into luminous sculptures. Arranging groups of identical empty, label-less bottles along the horizontal axis of the florescent light, his work evokes both products arranged on a shelf and the horizon line, a point he cheekily drives home with a...

Catharine Clark Gallery Photo Exhibit
Catharine Clark Gallery in San Francisco started 2007 with a photo exhibit that opened yesterday, featuring the works of Aaron Plant (U.S), Ruud van Empel (The Netherlands), Ellen Kooi (The Netherlands), and Carlos and Jason Sanchez (Canada). All of the artists share an affinity for subverted imagery of childhood, though their approaches vary wildly. The exhibit makes for a somewhat eerie but fascinating compilation...
