111 Minna Gallery
The 111 Minna art gallery in San Francisco hosts both local and international artists showcasing all types of art from contemporary paintings to live performance, from music DJing to films. It was established in 1993 and showcases the work from local and international artists.
This 4,000 square foot gallery encompasses the ‘coolness’ of art and is certainly no place to go if you are looking for work from the old masters. No, the driver of the 111 Minna art gallery is to emit to the San Francisco art scene an ever changing and dynamic exhibition portfolio of the latest contemporary art. We throughly enjoyed ourselves here, attending the ‘Under the Sun’ exhibit, which was a surf documentary by Cyrus Sutton.
The physical environment at 111 Minna Gallery is an ideal setting for what the gallery is trying to achieve. The 16 foot high walls with floor to ceiling windows gives the feeling of an urban warehouse with exposed piping and hardwood floors.
Please bear in mind that you have to be 21 or over to attend mainly due to alcohol being sold on site. This does however, give the gallery a certain hipness and indeed a great place for a first or second date if you are looking to impress.
From the 111 Minna Gallery website – all credit 111 Minna Gallery:
The sophisticated modern design of the space is animated by a 25 foot long rolled steel and copper bar created by Bay Area sculptor Jud Bergeron, multifunctional theatrical lighting designed by Terry Ohm of Impact Lighting and an eclectic mix of modern and antique furnishings.
111 Minna Gallery transforms itself every 6 weeks with rotating exhibitions of contemporary art, providing an ever-changing, dynamic atmosphere. The L-shaped gallery measures over 4,200 square feet and can be divided into smaller, more intimate spaces and can accommodate groups of 75 to 500 people.
