Water at Gallery 2727 Berkeley

Gallery 2727 Presents "Water" Art Exhibition

Berkeley, CA – Gallery 2727 is pleased to announce the upcoming art exhibition, "Water," showcasing the works of the 2727 Artist Co-op. The exhibition will run from May 2 to May 25 at Gallery 2727, located at 2727 California Street, Berkeley, California 94703.

"Water" is an exhibition that celebrates the mutable nature of water as an idea and a medium. Water is changeable as the seasons and as our emotions, providing a symbol for transformation and change, nourishment, emotion, and the divine. Still waters run deep, yet in creative work, “being in the flow” is a moment of connection and transcendent making, evoking the sense of nature allowed to move abundantly unimpeded. The artists of Gallery 2727 will exhibit  works that show these myriad qualities, prismatic and vivid as any lights upon water.

Throughout the exhibition period, the 2727 Artist Co-op is proud to present a series of workshops, concerts, artist talks, and community events to showcase and celebrate their work. In co-op member Francesca Borgatta’s workshops, guests of all ages will be invited to create portions of a collaborative coral reef sculpture for display in the exhibition. Please check our website 2727.today or sign up for our newsletter to hear more! 

An opening reception will be held on May 2 from 6PM - 8PM, providing an opportunity for visitors to meet the artists and experience the exhibition firsthand. Admission to the exhibition and reception is free and open to the public.

About 2727 Artist Co-op: We are a collective of local artists exhibiting regularly at our space in Berkeley, CA. Formerly a corner store, the beloved neighborhood staple has transformed into a pillar of the arts in the community. The public regularly contributes to the space, exhibiting everything from visual to performing arts. Member artists regularly host exhibitions, displaying a diverse body of work that approaches the world from a number of perspectives. The space hosts free and low cost workshops, helping other artists refine their crafts and engaging  the local community in art-making.  Emphasis is on emerging artists, local artists, and artists from under-represented groups who have had less opportunity to show their work. 

Gallery 2727 is open to the public Fridays from 4:00 pm to 8:00 pm, and Saturdays and Sundays from 1:00 pm to 5:00 pm. Gallery 2727 is committed to promoting innovative and thought-provoking art that fosters a deeper understanding of the world around us.
