Richard Kamler passed this morning, November 1, 2017.

Richard Kamler set the bar for the importance of art in our world. Insert yourself was his mantra to make a vital and positive difference. He was an art activist and was uncompromising in his desire for peace on earth. One of his art pieces was recording the lions at the San Francisco Zoo. He blasted their roar on the San Francisco Bay near San Quentin Penitentiary to protest the execution of a prisoner.

We will always hear Richard's ROAR. Peace Forever.

This is the last weekend to see Kasper Rodenborn’s exciting show - make sure you check out his “Fog” wall out back. And then, get ready for a special November.

Anne is showing many new works, including a 50 year revisiting of a favorite drawing of a horse she made as a 6 year old. Come help celebrate her fabulous show, Ripple. Jeanie and I will be performing the Fog family songbook on Sundays starting at 3 throughout November. We will be open on Thanksgiving to serve our wonderful community of art lovers.     -Cheers, Peter

"And the seasons they go round and round..."  Far Out Gallery loves to celebrate the various turnings of the sun's cycle, whether birthdays, anniversaries, or our quarterly seasonal demarcation. Come on over tomorrow and we'll celebrate our change from summer to fall (officially at 1:02). Who knows, maybe Anne Autumn (Herbst) will perform a pagan ritual to honor in our new season...

Friday, September 22nd, 4-6 pm

Sing along with Peter and Jeanie

to usher in a new season!

Refreshments.

 

Scenes from Guillermo Pulido's Opening

It was only a record-breaking 105 degrees in San Francisco yesterday for Guillermo's spirit-buoying opening. Even though Pulido's art filled the gallery with cool blues, we took little breaks and hit the alley out back for music and snacks. A joyous occasion!

Guillermo Pulido's Opening tomorrow 12-6 pm

Show runs Saturday, September 2 – Sunday, October 1, 2017

Pulido was born in Mexico and raised in San Francisco’s Mission district. He was active in the street art scene at a young age and studied at the San Francisco Art Institute where he gravitated to film, video and installation art. This exhibit explores time and place using photographs digitally enlarged—one mural-size—with Pulido’s poetic sensibility.
