The Usa Family Estate was the fourth piece of the series.
On March 7, 2009 the belongings of the Usa Family were up for auction. The effects of patriarch Donald, his wife Thelma, their children Don, Dick and Judy, grandchildren Jen, Brian, Mike and Emily, and great-grandchild Matthew were all to be sold to the highest bidder.
The project was a life-sized diorama of America's current economic crisis, with a storyline told through the belongings of a fictitious family.

The Sentient Painting was the third in the series, with an exhibition beginning at noon on Saturday July 12, 2008 and lasting until noon on Monday July 14.
This project was a multiple day live painting installation where 3 artists painted 1 painting over the course of 2 days. Visitors were encouraged to lounge and interact with the artists and thus directed the course of the painting.
The project was an inverse of the surrealist exercise the exquisite corpse as the artists colletively functioned as one artist (the corpse.)

Justification for Grooming was the second piece in the series, which concluded with an exhibition on July 29, 2007. It examined the psychology of male and female beauty rituals.
The installation was customized into Moxie Parlour, a San Francisco hair salon, and transformed the space into a temple for beauty worship. The show climaxed with a performance piece at 7:29pm where any member of the audience could take a cut of Gallup's hair.

16, the series debut, was a collaboration with fellow San Francisco artist Betty Blake which culminated in an exhibition on November 4, 2006.
It was an examination of adolescence and the adult society it reflects as pieces from the artists' past were repurposed and 'framed' through their adult perspectives.
The process of putting on this show was ultimately a repetition of how the original artwork was made- debuting in the art world was eerily similar to coming of age as a teenager.
