Sign Language


No Parking on the Dance Floor by Darwin Bell

This Saturday, I spent the early part of my evening with Violet and Jackson at Litquake, an anual literary event that features hundreds of authors reading in every bar and cafe along Valencia street. While bouncing from reading to reading, at the Chronicle Book's host venue Den, I spotted the work of Darwin Bell. His Polaroids of signs are strategically and beautifully mounted to form phrases. So if a picture is worth a thousand words, then is a picture of a word worth a thousand and one?

other things I did and saw this weekend:
De Young Reopening Celebration
Hideo Wakamatsu
Headland Open house
