Tobias Tovera at the Plaza, 555 California Street, San Francisco

Tobias Tovera's work is now featured on the Plaza Level of 555 California Street, San Francisco through December. Tovera's beautiful paintings are marked by richly saturated color dramatically suspended in pure white space, emphatically marking the study of time, or the current moment. His expansive use of saturated color, beyond the strict confines of his space, draw the viewer into an arresting fraction of time that is at once meditative, soothing and visually stimulating. Tovera is a young artist who earned his BFA from CCA in 2001.

When: October 13 through December 25
