Art of Fact: The Human Remains, Artwork by Dan Pillers

Wed, Mar 22
9:00am-8:00pm
Free.

Join Visual Aid and the San Francisco Library in an exhibition of
mixed-media sculpture and installation by San Francisco artist Dan
Pillers. Works will be on view through May 5th.

Pillers describes the autobiographical aspects of his work as a
reflection of, "the reality of being a forty-seven year old gay man
living at the beginning of a new millennium." Pillers cleverly
combines image and artifact with text and humor to illustrate the
human experience. The artwork topics span from such issues as
childhood memories, drug addicts, gay rights, bigotry, sexuality, HIV
and widowhood. His work is a testament to human endurance and survival.

This exhibit is a site-specific installation using samplings of work
created over the past decade. The combination of art, text and
artifact act as a narrative surrounding the strength and weakness
that remain within the human psyche.
