The McLoughlin Gallery at Code & Canvas: Code, Canvas, Chow Pop-up.

Artists: Daniel Healey, Ah-Young Jeon, John Waguespack, Cosimo Cavallaro.

Comment by AB: Day two of this two-day event presents a panel discussion convened to explore relationships between art and technology. The art on display is courtesy of The McLoughlin Gallery. For those of you keeping score at home, Code & Canvas "is a tech-art collective featuring artists' studios side-by-side with tech spaces... dedicated to the creation that stems from the intersection of art and technology and whose aim is to bring artists and creative scientists together in order to foster community and harness creativity." Sounds good to me... an art-positive work and exhibition space worth checking out.

Adobe Books & Backroom Gallery: Adobe Books 1st Birthday Party and 25th Anniversary; Survival Adaptations.

Artists: Tana Quincy Arcega, Allie Blanchard, Jon Gourley (w/Alice Shintani), Tom Loughlin, Masako Miki, Heather Murphy, Michelle Ramin, Merav Tzur, Crystal Vielula.

Comment by AB: It's a combination 25th Anniversary party for the Adobe Bookshop in all its various incarnations, a 1st Birthday party for Adobe at its current location, a group art show in the Backroom Gallery and a pre-birthday party for founder Andrew McKinley who's all dolled up in a Warhol wig for the occasion. The Survival Adaptations show is all about artist strategies for surviving in a rapidly changing San Francisco.
