Photos: Family First and Van Arno

This past weekend I headed over to San Francisco to check out the latest solo show of Van Arno at Shooting Gallery, as well as the “Family First” group show right next door at White Walls. I rented car this time as to avoid the two hour bus ride for once, and be able to move around the city easier. It wasn’t as cold as I thought it would be there, it must just be where I live that gets unbearably cold.

The Van Arno show was excellent, securing me as a fan from here on out. The Family First show which featured works by Shepard Fairey, Ian Francis, Mike Giant, Sylvia Ji, Adam Flores and more, was also a blast. It was great to finally see paintings by Ian Francis and Shawn Barber in person, both of which are even more amazing in person. I took so many pictures of the works just to be able to look back at all the small details in painting held.

New limited editon print by Adam Flores

San Francisco based artist Adam Flores has a new limited edition giclee print available through Curbs and Stoops. The idea of the site “is working towards increasing the accessibility of art across a diverse range of socioeconomic and cultural communities.” Along with Adam’s print you can also find prints by Adrienne Benitez, Contessa Trujillo, Jeffrey Pena, Pete Doolittle and Steph Chard. You might remember Steph as the featured artist back in April.

The print by Adam is 16″ x 22″, signed and numbered in an edition of 50. The work is entitled “”Get the Fuck off my Grass.” What a killer name. I really dig Adam’s work, the new worlds that he is able to create, the colors and for having a style that is very unique. Head on over and check it out.
