From the East Bay Express

At more than 8,000 square feet of studio space, The Compound Gallery and Studios (1167 65th St., Oakland) is home base to more than a dozen artists, and a resource to many more. This September, the gallery space will present an interdisciplinary group show celebrating the recent work of its artists, and at the September 1 opening, visitors will have the opportunity to tour more than twenty studios and receive demonstrations in letterpress, printmaking, and ceramics. Make sure to return in November for a solo exhibition of work by Jeanne Lorenz, featuring an impressive installation in paint that merges late-Seventies rock albums and Kabbalistic mysticism — surely a propitious pairing. Compound Group Show 2012 runs September 1-31; Jeanne Lorenz runs from November 10 through December 16 at The Compound Gallery and Studios. 510-601-1702 or TheCompoundGallery.com
