Artists’ Reception – Julie Engelmann, Amos Goldbaum, Liv Losee-Unger, Fernanda Martínez, & Deirdre Weinberg

Meet the artists of Big, Small, and Everything In Between and celebrate this group exhibition featuring five Bay Area muralists. Join us for an afternoon gathering and a closer look at how these artists bring the color, energy, and visual language of their public work into the gallery’s intimate setting. Free and open to the public. Julie Engelmann, based in Half Moon Bay, works across murals, paintings, and digital illustration. Using media ranging from acrylic on canvas to spray paint on large walls, she creates highly detailed and often surrealistic imagery, frequently drawing on historical themes and using color and composition to create new visual possibilities. Amos Goldbaum is a San Francisco–based visual artist known for his signature line drawings, which span canvases, large-scale murals, prints, and apparel. Inspired by the places and everyday scenes around him, his work combines multiple viewpoints, angles, and moments in time into cohesive compositions connected by a singular line. His murals can be found throughout the San Francisco Bay Area and in cities around the world, including New York, Los Angeles, Seattle, Tokyo, and Kathmandu. Liv Losee-Unger is a Bay Area muralist known for vibrant, nature-inspired, and community-centered art. With more than sixty public artworks completed across the United States and abroad, her detailed and colorful murals transform spaces through stories of flora, fauna, femininity, and human connection. Fernanda Martínez is an Oakland-based painter, muralist, and sculptor whose vibrant, expressive work draws from memories and observations of nature. Born and raised in Mexico City, she moved to the Bay Area in 2015, where she has developed an experimental and intuitive practice exploring the emotional depth of color, form, pattern, and texture. Her work spans painting, sculpture, murals, and public art, transforming her distinctive visual language across two- and three-dimensional forms. Martinez has exhibited her paintings and sculptures in galleries and has collaborated on numerous public art projects for businesses, nonprofit organizations, and community-focused and affordable housing developments. Deirdre Weinberg is a multidisciplinary artist with deep ties to the San Francisco Bay Area, working across murals, public art, and studio practice. Her evolving work currently focuses on climate change, using a limited black-and-white palette to explore landscapes, seascapes, and airscapes with a sense of urgency and starkness. Whether creating work in public spaces or the studio, Weinberg seeks to build community, connect with viewers, and inspire conversation, reflection, and new perspectives.
