	Shotgun Review: Overhung II: Hungover (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-30)
		Oakland's Boontling Gallery has found a niche in the signature staging: a year old and already having annuals, as in the salon styled open entry art exhibition Overhung, of which has shown great popularity among local artists and audience.
		The complexity of Overhung is found then almost exclusively in its familiarity and in the express salvation that any prior claims to a single Bay Area style or any notions of such resemblances were, in fact, a chance to market something that was not nearly as passing or isolated as was made to seem.
		The ultra casual, make shift environment of Boontling Gallery lends itself to a certain naturalism in terms of the artists and art that are attracted to this venue, making an exhibition like Overhung invaluable both as a segment or as a whole.
