Since August 2006, artist Nicole Wintermeyer's blog Arthead SF has been providing a forum for artists throughout the Bay Area and beyond to describe the meaning behind their work. We think this is a great idea since we often feel more drawn to a piece of artwork when we know the artist's intentions.

Tonight, Oakland's Swarm Gallery presents—in conjunction with their one-year anniversary celebration—a group exhibition of artists featured in Arthead, in which each piece is accompanied by the artist's description. While you're there, have a seat in Tao Urban's "Reading Room" installation, where you're encouraged to touch and explore the space. Arthead's show runs through April 27, and Reading Room runs through May 6.

Swarm is open to the public Tuesday through Sunday 12 to 6pm and by appointment, and they are located at Jack London Square, just a few blocks from the Alameda/Oakland ferry from San Francisco.
