California has long provided fertile ground for artists exploring consciousness, searching for utopia, and attempting to reconcile the natural world along with the allure of commercialism. Triple Base, an emerging artist gallery in San Francisco presents bi-coastal artists that work with these ideas. From Beat Art to Bay Area Figurative painting to the Mission School, San Francisco in particular has a rich history as an incubator for innovative artists and art movements that parallel coinciding practices in New York and abroad. With the expansion of the art world and the constant flow of artists and exhibitions moving all over the globe, now the California frame of mind is no longer confined to one location but instead finds roots in like-minded artistic subcultures all over the world.

Closing Party: Saturday, March 13, 8-11pm, Performers TBD
