Event WebsiteAbout
Heron Arts, in collaboration with The LEATHER & LGBTQ Cultural District and Oasis Arts is pleased to announce the group exhibition Pride Pop- Up Show. The exhibition will be a salon style show featuring artwork by local LGBTQ+ artists and will be both a celebration of the beginning of Pride month, as well as a celebration of the cultural heritage of the LGBTQ+ community in the SoMa neighborhood where Heron Arts is located.
SF/Arts Curator Insight
Located in the heart of the SOMA leather district, Heron Arts celebrates pride month with a mostly representational painting salon of LGBTQ+ artists. Many of the works reference mashup or collage, including: a humorous mixed media pop art nude by activist printmaker Favianna Rodriguez; a mysterious and moody Adam Caldwell oil blending figure and abstraction; and Serge Gay's graphic novel-inspired depiction of underground nightlife.
