Thoughts from the homeland. To watch it all happen and to not be able to stop it 💔 #Repost @__nitch ・・・ Simone de Beauvoir // "Whatever the country...man was everywhere crushed by technology, made a stranger to his own work, imprisoned, forced into stupidity. The evil all arose from the fact that he had increased his needs rather than limited them... As long as fresh needs continued to be created, so new frustrations would come into being. When had the decline begun? The day knowledge was preferred to wisdom and mere usefulness to beauty... Only a moral revolution...not a social or political revolution...only a moral revolution would lead man back to his lost truth."
Luiza Lukova makes her curatorial debut this month along Emma Christ with Blue on Blue on Blue. Together they are presenting three flash exhibitions by Marguerite Bailey, Brit, and Maggie Heath. Come support their vision this Sunday 8/12 (5-7pm), next Saturday 8/18 (5-7pm), and Sunday 8/26 (5-7pm). @__lusee @official____christ #blueonblueonblueaugust

It’s not every day that a legend comes into the gallery. Meet Linda Martinez, AKA the Muse of San Francisco, and our newest collector! At 81, she just picked this Jeffrey Kriksciun piece from the backroom gallery. In San Francisco since the 1960’s, she has been a nude model for art schools for most of her adult life and became the brothers Kuchar’s muse after seeing some of George’s films in 1986. WOW #edwardjeffreykriksciun #lindamartinez #nationalebackroom
