Past Exhibitions

Until it closed in 2006, the David Zapf Gallery was a central hub in the San Diego arts community. Occupying the ground floor of 2400 Kettner Blvd. Art complex, he was well known and loved by the artists, and he represented some of the best including: David Baze, DeLoss McGraw, Lynne Schuette, Anne Mudge, Philipp Scholz Rittermann, and many more.

Before his passing he specifically requested that his personal art collection should be sold to benefit his family. The Phes Gallery was honored to host this show and sale of paintings, prints, photographs, and sculpture.

Quiet Connections features selected works by Maine studio artists and friends Lissa Hunter and Carol Fay Stein.

What happens when the presence of silence allows for the unspoken to be heard?
Carol Stein and Lissa Hunter have been fellow artists and friends for nearly 30 years. For the past ten years or so they have shared what they call Studio Days, each going to the other’s Maine-based studio, working in near silence for the day or several days in a row. Being side by side in the same space has become an integral part of each of their practices. Neither knows how her work has been influenced by the other. The arc of each artist’s practice has been continuous and integrated, each new work coming from the previous. There aren’t any seismic shifts or grand leaps that have come directly from time together. But each is certain that her work would be different and, they suspect, not so rich if they had not had these times together, these quiet connections.
