|||||||||||
| A bike will be locked outside Keys That Fit at 2312 Telegraph in Oakland. Over the course of two months it will be stripped piece by piece and re-assembled in the Keys That Fit store front window. Chris Sollars is an artist living and working in San Francisco since 1999. Since 1997 his work revolves around the reclamation of public space through urban interventions, the results of which are integrated into video installations. Chris has a BFA in sculpture from Rhode Island School of Design and a MFA from Bard College. He is also the director and curator of 667Shotwell a non-commercial space in his home for artists to do experimental work, started in 2001 during the wake of disappearing art-spaces. His work is in the collections of the Berkeley Art Museum, Fogg Art Museum, and Miami Art Museums. Recently awarded the Bay Area Eureka Fellowship Grant in 2007, Chris is currently completing C RED BLUE J a documentary based art video that uses his family (sister who works for the Bush Administration, Christian father, and Lesbian mother) to illustrate the complications of division during the 2004 Presidential election. |
