On May 17th, ArtPadSF will launch with an exclusive preview show benefiting the 2012/13 SECA Art Award. Since 1967, SFMOMA’s art interest group, SECA (Society for the Encouragement of Contemporary Art), has honored more than 70 Bay Area artists of exceptional promise with this biennial award. ArtPadSF has partnered with SECA to shine a light on this important award program that has brought recognition to many Bay Area artists, including D-L Alvarez, Tauba Auerbach, Rosana Castrillo Díaz, Kota Ezawa, Colter Jacobsen, Chris Johanson, Ruth Laskey, Barry McGee, and Laurie Reid, among many others.
