David Andres is a sixth generation San Francisco native. It was
at Artworks that he was first introduced to a community of
artists and began exploring hi creative boundaries. Two years
later he left Artworks to begin the fulltime pursuit of his
invention. Three years into the development of his hydrogen
engine and in his 29th year a friend dragged him to Burning
Man'97 where the candle of his creative interest was transformed
into a torch of creative output. While continuing to develop his
prototype he began to explore the creative side of motion and
physical phenomena."Today, at 33, I'm three prototypes deep into
my invention and have assembled a body of kinetic work that
begins an interpretive discussion with the universe."

**Crucible Steel Gallery presents**
CIRCUITS, CURRENTS & CODES Meditations on the Fury of Machines
Artists: Jeff Becker, Jesse & Glenda Drew, Mark Faigenbaum and
Eleanor Kent and POD(s)
Curated by Chris Benfield and Amy Davila
Crucible Steel Gallery introduces "Circuits, Currents & Codes", a
group exhibition bringing together five local artists who utilize
technology, modern and archaic, to expose the humanity and
inhumanity, innate and programmed within machines. Artists
include Jeff Becker, Jesse & Glenda Drew, Mark Faigenbaum and
Eleanor Kent.
Jeff Becker creates large kinetic, motorized sculptures, which
behave mechanically while exhibiting human characteristics. The
oscillation of the water powered, torturous devices parallel the
struggle between body and mind. Can each exist without the other?
The balancing forces make the viewer aware of the existential
nature of our society.
Jesse and Glenda Drew are the creators of "Teller Machine", a
mock ATM which disseminates bits of commentary rather than crisp
bills to its users. This new media installation creates a
dialogue about information and questions how liberally
individuals interact with this "private electronic confessional".
Mark Faigenbaum works with images from outdated analog machines
merged with diagrams and visual information taken from natural
and esoteric sciences. Overlaying images of currents, weather
patterns and magnetic fields, he reassembles earthly patterns in
a seemingly mechanical format, revealing the similarities between
nature and machinery.
Eleanor Kent is interested in using new materials in traditional
ways to draw connections between the past and the future.
Utilizing ancient methods of transforming a single string into a
three-dimensional structure, Eleanor crochets with
electro-luminescent wire and knits computed fractals to produce
modern artifacts. Her work exposes a warm and embracing side to
new technology.
Crucible Steel Gallery is located in CELLspace at 2050 Bryant St.
@ 18th (415) 648-7562. Gallery hours are 10am -10pm daily.
