KROWSWORK (curator: Jasmine Moorhead)

Krowswork was founded by Jasmine Moorhead in December of 2009 to provide a space to highlight two mediums she feels are at the zeitgeist of artistic consciousness: video and photography. As we navigate an increasingly mediated world, these art forms ideally serve as informed and inspired guides, reminding us of their unique transcendent and ritual possibilities. Cited as the Best New Innovative Gallery in its initial year, Krowswork has proven itself to be one of the Bay Area’s most consistent venues for experimentation among both emerging and established artists. The gallery’s exhibition DocumentO was selected by KQED Arts as one of the Top Ten Bay Area Art Experiences of 2012. Krowswork is named for crows, genus corvus, which, like video and photography at their best, are observant and fearless messengers, whose unique viewpoint helps to bridge the earthly and the divine, reconnecting the known with the unknown.
