New work by New York-based artist Paul Wackers is currently on view at two San Francisco galleries. At Park Life, new ceramic sculptures and works on paper from Wackers are included in the exhibition Earth Wizard alongside works from Jessica Hans, an artist from Philadelphia working with ceramic vessels in a complementary style. A number of sculptural collaborations between Wackers and Hans are also on view. At Eleanor Harwood Gallery, a solo exhibition of Wackers’ paintings marks the artist’s fourth solo exhibition with the gallery. These paintings, on panel, canvas, and paper, represent a revisitation by Wackers of his charming household/studio still lifes.
