    Americas as Source is a collaborative exhibit presenting four artists from North, Central and South America. They are Sidnea D'Amico, German Herrera, Kathryn Kain and Michele Muennig. Marian Parmenter, founder of the SFMOMA Rental Galleries at Fort Mason was curator for the show and chose these four artists to show influences from the Americas and the continuity that lies deep within the creative process of each artist's work. Sidnea D'Amico was born in Brazil, studying photography and jewelry design before settling in the U.S. Her main mediums now are painting and mixed media. In 2005 she was nominated to represent Brazil at the Florence Biennale of Contemporary Art in Italy. Germain Herrera is a photographer from Mexico City who now lives in Northern California. He creates photo-based prints and books with archetypal, Jungian symbolism and dream material as his themes. In 2006, Germain was the recipient of a residency at the de Young Museum and also received two Marin Arts Council Photography grants. Kathryn Kain is from the U.S. and has exhibited her artwork in and around the Bay Area for over fifteen years. She layers drawings on top of monotypes to make an unplanned amalgamation using different mediums that coalesce into a picture that is complete but open-ended for interpretation. Michele Muenigg is also from the U.S. and is a glass sculptor, painter and mixed media artist. For this exhibition she has crated figurative oil paintings with illusive objects inspired by her childhood fantasies and surreal dreams.
