San Francisco Chronicle: Fresh perspectives on display at new gallery for MFA students

March 27, 2015 in Gallery News

“It made me realize that so many of these programs don’t have opportunities to show your work before your final thesis show,” Tania Houtzager says. “The only shows you can get are ones where you are competing with mid-career artists.”

Check out Chronicle reporter Sam Whiting's original full article and video here.
