Justin Giarla and White Walls Gallery are proud and excited to start a new project in the new year of 2015 with internationally known artist “Poesia” with the birth of 886 Geary – a space curated and directed by “Poesia. He will be bringing monthly shows to our space though out the year in one of our many exhibition rooms, both local and international artists so please come see his first curation by Italian artist Filippo Minelli.

886 Geary Gallery is pleased to present Nothing to Say, a solo exhibition by Filippo Minelli. The opening reception will be Saturday, January 10th, from 7-11 pm, and the exhibition is free and open to the public for viewing through February 7, 2014.

Nothing to Say will be the artist Filippo Minelli’s first solo exhibition in the United States as well as showcase recent work during his travels in California. Minelli initiated his series of work titled Silence/Shapes in 2009 inspired by political demonstrations, with the aim of visualizing silence as a physical shape in the landscape by decontextualizing the violent media of smoke grenades and juxtaposing it to the beauty of nature.

Having produced numerous interventions across Europe, Asia, Africa, and now the US, the artist will focus the exhibition on a series of recent works, most of them created in various areas throughout California specifically for this show. Working in residence as well as traveling the artist will utilize this experience to exhibit for 886 Geary’s Inaugural exhibition.
