Haines Gallery, Exhibits Andy Goldsworthly, "THe Landscape Artists"

In a new profile in The New Yorker, Andy Goldsworthy speaks to Rebecca Mead about the development of his work and his legacy as an artist, from his earliest installations to Gravestones, a poignant new project that will be the artist's "most substantial work on his home terrain." The sheer beauty of some of Goldsworthy’s work—sliced fronds of heron feathers arranged in stark geometries, or a boulder coated in blood-red poppy petals—has sometimes led him to be characterized as a visual version of an exultant nature poet. But Goldsworthy deplores the city dweller’s notion of the countryside as a picturesque escape. “For me, the landscape is not a place you go to for therapy and relaxation—it is to get challenged and have ideas, and to generate thoughts and feelings and emotions,” he told me. “It’s a very powerful thing to deal with.”   Read on newyorker.com Goldsworthy in San Francisco Drawn Stone (2005) at the de Young Museum Spire (2008) in the Presidio Wood Line (2011) in the Presidio Andy Goldsworthy's work has been the subject of Fifty Years, a critically acclaimed retrospective at the National Galleries of Scotland, as well as exhibitions at major museums including the Aspen Institute, CO; deCordova Sculpture Park and Museum, Lincoln, MA; Frederik Meijer Gardens & Sculpture Park, Grand Rapids, MI; Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, NY; Museo Nacional Reina Sofia, Madrid, Spain; and Yorkshire Sculpture Park, UK.

Haines Gallery: Chris McCaw: Reversals and Revolutions Opening Reception: Friday, January 23, 2026 | 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM

Chris McCaw, Inverse #117 (Burnt, Anza Borrego), 2025   Chris McCaw: Reversals and Revolutions Opening Reception: Friday, January 23, 2026 | 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM Haines proudly presents Reversals and Revolutions, our second solo exhibition with renowned photographer Chris McCaw. This highly anticipated exhibition marks McCaw's first solo showing in San Francisco in nearly a decade, and debuts his newest body of work, Inverse, alongside a selection of his signature Sunburn prints. Join us for the opening reception on Friday, January 23 from 6:00 PM - 8:00 PM, in tandem with the Fort Mason Art Walk and SF Art Week 2026.   Preview the Exhibition   McCaw's singular artistic practice foregrounds photography's essential components — light and time, lenses and light-sensitive materials — to generate startlingly inventive photographic forms. From the tonally bifurcated landscapes in Inverse to the sun-scorched horizons in Sunburn, the works on view are singular photographic objects, direct prints rendered entirely in-camera through the artist's years long mastery of his analog tools and complex photographic processes. Across both bodies of work, McCaw pushes the medium beyond conventions, revealing landscapes shaped not only by geography and astronomy, but by his own experimental rigor. Chris McCaw, Sunburned GSP #1155 (Eastern Sierras), 2025 Chris McCaw: Reversals and Revolutions is on view through March 7, 2026 Sales Inquiries: alexandra@hainesgallery.com Press Inquiries: irene@hainesgallery.com Chris McCaw’s (b. 1971, lives and works in Pacifica, CA) work is collected by such institutions as George Eastman Museum, Rochester, NY; Getty Museum, Los Angeles, CA; Los Angeles County Museum of Art, CA; Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, TX; National Gallery of Art, Washington DC; Philadelphia Museum of Art, PA; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, CA; Smithsonian American Art Museum, Washington DC; Victoria and Albert Museum, London, UK; and Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, NY, among many others.

Haines Gallery: Exhibits Meghann Riepenhoff

Our Artist Digests focus on the work of a single artist, inviting you to explore their practice in depth through a carefully curated mix of content. This week, we spotlight Meghann Riepenhoff, who creates her vivid blue cyanotypes in collaboration with nature. Her work is currently on view in the Haines exhibition Elemental, and Ansel Adams in Our Time at the de Young Museum.

The artist coats sheets of paper with homemade emulsion and places them directly in the landscape—along the shore or in bodies of water, draped over branches or packed under snowfall. As they make contact with the photographic materials, the elements leave physical inscriptions on paper. Each work is wholly unique as a fingerprint. Riepenhoff is a recipient of the Guggenheim Foundation Fellowship and Fleishhacker Foundation Grant, and has exhibited at the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art, Denver Art Museum, Museum of Fine Arts, Boston, New York Public Library, and San Francisco Museum of Modern Art, among others. She lives and works in Bainbridge Island, WA.

In Conversation

"In the action of making pictures, I'm looking for hope and resiliency within our complex problem." Watch Riepenhoff in conversation with curator Erin O'Toole at the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. The evening included a reading by Rebecca Solnit, who wrote the text for Ice, Riepenhoff's latest monograph, published by Radius Books.

"The wave, the flow, whatever you see on the paper is a very literal inscription from an element in the landscape. They are dancing with things we associate with abstraction, but are totally literal in both their making and what they present." Riepenhoff joins Tyler Green for on an episode of the Modern Art Notes podcast. #hainesartgallery#fienartmagazine#fneartfun
