An exhibition at the Oceanside Museum of Art, in Oceanside, California, a partnership between OMA and the San Diego Museum of Art Artists Guild, which is celebrating its centennial this year. The show features a selection of Guild member artists who lived and worked in San Diego between 1915-2015. This survey of local art was curated by Mark-Elliott Lugo, a longtime visual arts curator for the San Diego Public Library system, whose 15 years of exhibitions at the Pacific Beach Library were an introduction to some of the best known and unknown artists in our area. Lugo said at a recent press preview: “There’s so much great talent here, and I really wanted to show that in this exhibit.” As James Chute, the art critic for the San Diego Union-Tribune, wrote in the review of 100 Artists, 100 Years, of June 6, 2015, referring to her public project, “Joyce Cutler-Shaw’s “Orbital Loops” at the County Operations Center (and her remarkable “Skeletons & Shadows” at Oceanside).”
