Back in San Francisco, I visited 49 Geary, a building in downtown SF that houses over a dozen galleries and show many of the best artists making work in the Bay Area. There, Jessica Dickinson had a solo show at Altman Siegel Gallery, which consisted of minimalist, all-over paintings. From afar, it’s difficult to get much from these paintings, but up close you start to appreciate the effort that goes into scrapping and manipulating the surface to create a heavily textured surface.
