ToyCyte: Toy Culture Collected

FIFTY24SF Gallery opens a show tonight featuring works by Jeremy Fish and Miss Van.  Jeremy Fish’s show, Ghosts of the Barbary Coast, celebrates the individuals that chased their dreams all the way to San Francisco during the California Gold Rush.  In exploring the city he admires, and has called home for the last 15 years, Jeremy Fish unwittingly writes a love letter to San Francisco through his works of art.  Read more on the inspiration behind Ghosts of the Barbary Coast here.  Ghosts of the Barbary Coast will be on display at the upper level of the FIFTY24SF Gallery from December 4-30, 2008.

Miss Van is known for her “poupees” and with each new show, they evolve and interact in different settings.  Still A Little Magic explores the world of theater and charade under the big top tents.  Miss Van’s Still A Little Magic, features new drawings and paintings, and will be on display at the lower level of the FIFTY24SF Gallery from December 4-30, 2008.

The show opens tonight, 12.4.08 from 7PM to 9:30PM and runs through the end of December. Check it!
