In addition to the Cantor Arts Center’s ongoing installation, “The Faces of Ruth Asawa,” which opened in 2022, “Archive Room: Ruth Asawa” highlights her contributions to the Alvarado School Arts Workshop, launched in 1968 with Sally Woodbridge at San Francisco’s Alvarado Elementary School. The single-gallery exhibit features four art projects, as well as teaching materials taken from the Artist-in-Residence program. The Bay Area Japanese American artist (1926-2013) is best known for her hanging wire sculptures inspired by nature, which she mainly created in the ’50s and ’60s. The show goes until July 5.
