The di Rosa Center for Contemporary Art’s current exhibition “Fort Phooey: Wiley in the Studio,” recreates the studio space of well-known North Bay artist William T. Wiley, who died in early 2021. Wiley’s studio space was a work of art in itself and a meeting place for generations of Bay Area artists.
In di Rosa’s Gallery 1, the exhibition allows visitors to experience the sights and sounds of Wiley’s iconic San Francisco Bay Area studio, combining more than 50 original works from di Rosa’s collection with archival objects on loan from the artist's estate.
