Mama Buzz Café
View video of Mama Buzz Cafe's February 2006 show, Used Cars, featuring work by Jake Watling. (Running Time: 3:20)
Mama Buzz café it is more than stop for eats and organic coffee -- but those are definitely worth the trip -- it is a gathering place for the creative community. Part café, part reading room, this creative space is also home to one of Oakland's most exciting galleries which hosts monthly exhibitions by local artists working across a variety of mediums.
The gallery features Used Cars from February 3-24, 2006, a showing of new paintings, drawings and sculptures by Jake Watling. Based on the hard-knock conditions of urban life, this series transforms the artist's fears into tangible realities. His work is inspired by his North Oakland neighborhood into which he incorporates found objects, graffiti, and local storefront graphics mined directly from his local environment.
