Usugrow’s SHINGANIST @ FIFTY24SF Gallery

Made a little stop off at FIFTY24SF Gallery on Thursday night to see Usugrow’s curated show, “Shinganist.” Really good work. The show features the work of USUGROW, MOZYSKEY, TOSHIKAZU NOZAKA, BENE, and JUN KANEKO.

That’s the nice lettering on the outside…. that is my lady, me, and my good buddy Jeff, who now resides in the Lower Haight.

Usugrow… signing a lady’s arm.

Mike Giant getting his notebook signed by Mr Usugrow. Nice to see Mike back in SF.

And, of course, Robin Williams was at the show, and because I forgot my real camera, I couldn’t get the old iPhone in full gear to shoot the man as he walked by me. He looked good, slick in all black.

Anthony Lister And Craola At FIFTY24SF Gallery

Adam Bryce — Mon, 02 Feb 2009 19:24:46 +0000

FIFTY24SF Gallery presents ‘Magic Trick’ by Anthony Lister and ‘Seeing Things’ by Greg.Craola.Simkins. ”Magic Trick” is a solo exhibition by Anthony Lister, whos work is a reflection and interpretation of the constant bombardment of media, and its relationship with the viewer. His mixed media technique gives his work a depth that has made him one of the most sought-after contemporary artists today. While the downstairs gallery will hold ”Seeing Things”, a solo exhibition by Craola, where his outlandish dream of characters are part of a fantasy sideshow, inspired by elements from pop culture, the old masters, nature, carnival kitsch and most importantly, a warped imagination. With the opening reception held on Thursday Feb 5th 2009 from 7-9pm, be sure you check this exhibition out!

Jeremy Fish presents his solo exhibition at Gallery Fifty24SF of San Francisco called ‘Ghost Of The Barnaby Coast’. The new work pays homage to San Francisco’s debauturous past and what makes the city so fasincating from the Gold Rush to the Dot Com Boom. Fecal Face payed a trip to Fish’s studio and caught a close up glimps into his world of large bears and Emperor Norton. Have a look at some great photos after the jump.

Thanks to the guys at Fecal Face for the pics

Barack Obama x Upper Playground x Digital Gravel

I got an email from my friends over at Upper Playground this morning, announcing they have just teamed up with Digital Gravel to sell their exclusive artist-designed Obama prints on limited edition tees through Digital Gravel’s web site. All proceeds, as always, go to creating more stickers, prints, tees, and promotional items to get Obama in the mind’s of every voter. Its a great cause; buy one if you can’t afford a campaign contribution. I love what UP has done with the Obama prints and tees. I’m proud that they have taken a lot of time to devote themselves to the campaign. The tees include designs from The Date Farmers, Munk One, Sam Flores, Alex Pardee, Grotesk, Morning Breath, and Ron English. I like the Grotesk design a lot, that red one above. . . .

Catalyst show @ FIFTY24SF Gallery in San Francisco tonight

Going out to see Aaron Horkey at his group show at Upper Playground’s FIFTY24SF Gallery in San Francisco tonight. If you haven’t see his work, we did a feature on him in Juxtapoz in April of this year; not only is he a good guy, but he is one of the most talented fine artist/illustrators in the world today. He is immense in his talent actually, and being that he is from Minnesota, he gets the long winters to stay indoors and work. Check out Juxtapoz.com, UpperPlaygroundGlobal.blogspot.com, and BurlesqueDesign.com for more info on the show at Horkey.
