The San Francisco Arts Commission Gallery is pleased to offer a monoprint by Leslie Shows, produced exclusively for the SFAC Gallery. Shows created a unique pattern for each print using a monoprinting technique. Finally, incorporating her elegant and complex collage process, the process resulted in a series where no two prints are alike! These remarkable monoprints are Shows’ foundational pieces exploring imagery that will inform an upcoming video project.

Shows received a BFA from the San Francisco Art Institute, and her MFA at the California College of the Arts. Shows was included in Bay Area Now 5 at Yerba Buena Center for the Arts. Her work has also been exhibited at the Orange County Museum of Art, Newport Beach, CA; Armory Show, NY; Frieze Art Fair, London, England; and Art Basel Miami Beach, Art Nova, Miami, FL. Solo Exhibitions include Jack Hanley Gallery, Los Angeles and San Francisco. A recipient of the SFMOMA 2006 SECA Art Award, her work was featured at SFMOMA in early 2007 and is also included in their permanent collection.
