Needles and Pens : Tim Kerr + Rich Jacobs - So Are You an Outsider and Do You Like It Out There?
Comment: The walls are dense with art, raw collaborative portraits, mainly musicians (and other notables as well), by artist/musicians Tim Kerr and Rich Jacobs. The vibrant works exude no shortage of character plus most come with social and political commentary. Kerr and Jacobs are gonna play music at the opening and throngs are already gathering for that, but I'm on a tight schedule... you know the drill. Righteous show; go see.

Culture Skate : Something Visionary.
Artists: Akayo, Todd Bratrud, Derek curry, Chris dyer, Nate Van Dyke, Esu, Megan Kimber, Danny King, Brandon Lomax, Philip Milic, Lucian Moon, Ras Terms, Toad, Kip westerfield.
Comment: Urban mix with a hint of mystical at this Culture Skate group show. The store looks like a skateboard shop at first glance, which it mainly is, but you take a look around and see that the essence represents more like a lifestyle. Worth a visit.

Live Art Gallery 151 Potrero Ave. San Francisco, CA 94103: Anita - Broken-Hearted Anatomy.
Comment: Symbol-laden paintings by Anita have a distinct folk art feel. She tells me she prefers going by her first name only. Good luck finding her on Google.
