Up now! Narangkar Glover

Picture
"shangri-la girl's school" is a panoramic drawing installation at MG Gallery in Oakland in which Glover has recalled her childhood boarding school from memory, and committed it to charcoal drawings which wrap around the perimeter of the space and measure about 30 feet in total.

Narangkar Glover is a visual artist and curator living and working in Oakland, California. In her work she investigates personal narrative, individualism and private space.  For narrative work, Glover treats memories like abstracted representations, and for each there is an appropriate visual dialogue to take advantage of.  She deliberately avoids fabricating an alternate reality and rejects symbolism, mysticism or iconography, and focuses on form as her primary visual language.  Glover is currently an MFA candidate at the University of California at Berkeley, and the co-owner of Rowan Morrison Gallery in Oakland.


Window Display Project

MG Gallery's brand new Window Display Project is coming this December!  Located in Oakland's Temescal neighborhood, MG Gallery will be exhibiting artwork in its storefront windows for around the clock viewing.  Every two weeks a new artist will create a window installation by reinterpreting the traditional holiday storefront display and sprinkling it with pizazz.  Photographs and descriptions of each project will be posted in our Window Display Project section.
