Sahar Khoury: Weights & Measures
MANETTI SHREM MUSEUM. The Oakland-based artist is inspired by familial and global histories, food, music, and mourning. The exhibition features a reconfigured clock tower sculpture that alludes to market structures in the Eastern Mediterranean Levant region, and new works in ceramic and bronze that speak to familial and cultural ties across time.

Backstory: Digitizing the Museum Collection

Seeing The Same Thing Differently
THE PAINT CHIP. A collaborative exhibition by husband and wife David Kalb and Nancy Gelbard, exploring how two artists respond to the same moments using lens and brush. David’s street photographs capture spontaneous, unguarded scenes from everyday life. Many of Nancy’s oil paintings are created directly from these photographs. In addition to their shared artistic experience, each artist is also exhibiting individual pieces of their work. Free
