Triple Base Gallery is pleased to announce Double Blind, a two-person exhibition featuring Bryson Gill and Jay Nelson. San Francisco-based artists and long-time friends, Gill and Nelson will present new paintings that illustrate both of their common sensibilities and recent divergences. Gill and Nelson attended California College for the Arts together and often influenced one another in their art practice. Previous to this exhibition, Gill held an influential residency in Leipzig, Germany and Nelson has been working towards his MFA at Bard College in New York. In this time, each has honed their individual skills and created experimental works. The artists intentionally prepared for this exhibition without viewing the other's work as an experiment to see what differences or similarities emerge. The exact outcome is yet to be determined but you can expect to see large-scale, ambitious paintings by both Gill and Nelson.

In conjunction with the exhibition, a limited edition artist book will be produced by Triple Base Gallery.
