Eight bridges connect the San Francisco Bay, so it is an apt name for a gallery platform that brings the Bay Area art world together.
Our mission is to maintain a vibrant gallery scene, despite restrictions on travel, celebrations and other larger gatherings. We want to support our artists by informing and entertaining curators, collectors and critics with potent online exhibitions of their work.
On the first Thursday of every month, we will launch 8 shows of artists relevant to the Bay Area. They may be working in this place, long considered an epicenter of change, or deeply engaged in the conversations the Bay Area holds dear, whether it’s related to technology, the environment, social justice or sexual identity, to name a few. In addition, each month will highlight the crucial work of a Bay Area non-profit arts organization.

Ratio 3 is pleased to present a selection of works from Without Stopping, an exhibition featuring eight artists based in the United States and Japan. Less a thematic survey than a reflection on the breadth of current discourses in painting, Without Stopping brings together paintings by artists who reflect a diverse and ever-evolving discipline. While artists and their audiences may favor different styles, subject matter, and techniques from one decade to the next, the dialogues among artists continue, and the medium of painting endures. Whether rendering still lifes, layering gestural brushstrokes, altering a canvas’s shape and surface, or combining several modes of painting, each artist on view takes a sustained and distinctive approach to contemporary painting.
The exhibition is on view at the gallery through December 18th. To make an appointment to visit in person, please use this link or email us at gallery@ratio3.org
