Closing this Sunday at SFMOMA: “Suzanne Jackson: What Is Love.”
When Suzanne Jackson’s oil paints were stolen from her car in the early years of her career, she didn’t replace them—she reinvented her practice. She began working with acrylics like watercolor, layered into dreamy scenes of Black figures, birds, flowers, and hearts. This shift sparked decades of fearless experimentation with the medium and led to the bold, material-driven abstractions she’s known for today.
Don’t miss this moment—“What Is Love” closes March 1.
