Jack Fischer represents more than 30 artists. In early 2014, he relocated his gallery from the haughty confines of 49 Geary to Potrero Hill. The move was auspicious: Todd Hosfelt, Brian Gross, Catherine Clark, and George Lawson all have galleries within one block. (Fischer also maintains gallery space at Minnesota Street Project.) His light-flooded Potrero space showcases self-taught and emerging artists like Chris Dalton Powell, who constructs whimsical images on found book boards and binding, and Annie Vought, who hand-cuts intricate paper texts. In 2017, Fischer exhibited Ward Schumaker’s Hate is What We Need, a book of paintings depicting controversial quotes by President Donald Trump.
