The 20-year professional association between artist Squeak Carnwath and Karen Tsujimoto, senior curator of art at the Oakland Museum of California, culminates in 'Squeak Carnwath: Painting Is No Ordinary Object.' This presentation of Carnwath's work -- the first organized by a major West Coast museum -- includes more than 40 paintings not seen collectively since the artist's last major exhibition, in 1994. The exhibition's companion book, 'Painting Is No Ordinary Object,' is a 160-page retrospective of Carnwath's career.
