In support of WORKS/San José's experimental gallery, Berg has donated Nude with a Green Pillow to the annual WORKS auction. The painting was awarded recognition by art historian Donna Hunter, Ph.D. during the 2002 SCMAC "Figure it Out" exhibition. WORKS/San Jose's auction is a showcase of the vitality and diversity of the South Bay art community and is well attended by gallery directors, collectors, and art professionals, as well as the general public. The exhibition is open to the public for two weeks, starting Tuesday, November 22nd and culminates in both a live and silent auction on Saturday, December 3rd.
