The article introduces BIG WEEK, a new calendar feature highlighting curated events in the arts and culture scene of San Francisco. It showcases various activities, including a pop-up exhibition by CCA MFA students at the Institute of Contemporary Art, a thrilling Roller Derby match featuring the Bay Area's inclusive teams, and an Edward Gorey exhibition at the Cartoon Art Museum. Each event underscores significant themes of creativity, community engagement, and the importance of the arts in reflecting contemporary societal issues.
"For The Time Being is an ambitious survey of cutting-edge practices from sculpture, painting, and photography to video, installation, and performance. These students bring provocative and sensitive approaches to contemporary art, addressing urgent subjects like mourning and displacement, the body, existential dilemmas, altered landscapes, and craft as storytelling."
"Smash! Boom! Bam! Get in on the action of the Bay Area's only, hyper-inclusive Roller Derby gang, as the high octane women's sport kicks the season into high gear, with San Francisco Rolling Dead taking on the Oakland Outlaws at Richmond Memorial Auditorium."
"The works on display are drawn from the collection of Gorey's longtime friend and collaborator Carol Verburg, author of the lavish new art biography The Theatrical Adventures of Edward Gorey: Rare Drawings, Scripts and Stories (Chronicle Books, 2024)."
