DESCRIPTION:Exhibition January 14 - March 26, 2021; Panel discussion March 8th \n\nIt's 
 no secret that women of color are historically underrepresented in the 
 world of contemporary art, but what about disabled women of color? \n\nAna 
 Maria Vidalon: Hidden Figures at Creativity Explored  is a solo exhibition 
 that highlights the intersectionality between race, sex, and ability in a 
 time when many institutions are reckoning with inequity in the arts.\n\nThe 
 debut solo exhibition by artist Ana Maria Vidalon (b. 1957, Peru)  invites 
 viewers to explore the enigmatic characters that appear in the artist's 
 complex multimedia compositions spanning her over 30-year career. As a 
 disabled artist who uses alternative means to communicate, we may never 
 fully understand why Vidalon creates space for faces and forms within her 
 abstract, congested drawings, but the resulting works tell stories that can 
 be interpreted differently by each viewer. Ana Maria Vidalon lives at home 
 with her family in San Francisco and often travels to Peru where her family 
 is from. \n\nAna Maria Vidalon: Hidden Figures is on view online, with 
 artwork available for purchase and installation images until March 26 on 
 Artsy 
 (https://www.artsy.net/show/creativity-explored-hidden-figures-ana-maria-vidalon?sort=partner_show_position).\n\nGet 
 WOC Panel Discussion: Celebrating, Collecting and Curating Art by Women of 
 Color\nIn honor of International Women's Day, we will also welcome Bay Area 
 painter Chelsea Wong, art consultant Donna Enad Napper (Art Consulting 
 Services), and curator Maria Jenson (Executive Director, SOMArts) to think 
 critically together about the ways art by women of color is represented in 
 our modern institutions, particularly in the Bay Area. \n\nJoin the panel 
 discussion via Eventbrite
