artpadsf

i just returned from the most thrilling art fair! actually, there were three this weekend: sf fine art fair, artmrkt, and artpadsf. the latter was my favorite. the first bit of awesome was the venue—the famed 50s-style phoenix hotel, located in the hottest art hood—the tenderloin. each of the participating galleries filled their glass-front hotel room with art and personal flair. the experience was uniquely san francisco, and each room reminded me of a different part of the city. they were playing good music next to a pool-side bar, all surrounded by mind-blowing art. i hope this event was successful enough to become a repeat occurrence.
