Over the last 10 years, having hosted over 80 gallery exhibitions (including one in London, England and another in Malmo, Sweden), N&P has evolved into a grass-roots hub of the city’s thriving arts scene that attracts both a local and an international scope of artists providing an integral “stepping-stone” type of service with it’s virtual open-door to beginning artists. For many, Needles & Pens is the first place to display anything they’ve created publicly. There have been countless throngs of successful local individuals who’s work was first shown in a zine or silk-screened t-shirt on the racks at N&P that later went on to greater acclaim. Among this spectrum of influential artists are: Tauba Auerbach, Monica Canilao, Bill Daniel, Chris Duncan, Hamburger Eyes, Maria Forde, Jay Nelson, Mat O’Brien, Emily Prince, The Polaroid Kidd, Kyle Ranson, Sara Thustra, and many more… WE'RE OPEN DAILY 12 PM - 7 PM When in Los Angeles visit our sister store: & Pens Press 8564 Washington Blvd Culver City, CA. 90232

Oliver Hawke Gallery ABOUT US: Oliver Hawke Gallery is a pop-up art gallery and art exhibition space producing monthly group and solo shows in the South of Market district of San Francisco. The gallery is affiliated with The Artillery SF, a film, visual graphics and animation studio. Oliver Hawke promotes new and emerging as well as established artists working in various media including illustration, painting, video art, photography and mixed media. The goal of Oliver Hawke Gallery is to provide a dynamic alternative art space where artists can exhibit and sell their art, where the public can be exposed to new artists and ideas in art, and to encourage the creative arts community of San Francisco. The pop-up gallery/exhibition space was a reaction to many local artists being priced out by rising costs in San Francisco. Our hope is that this space will promote artists living and working in the city of San Francisco. And for artists beyond, it will be part of a vibrant arts community.

With a background in law, non-profit arts administration and art dealing, Todd Hosfelt opened his gallery in San Francisco in 1996. Former museum curator and current partner Dianne Dec joined the gallery in 1997. In 2012, Hosfelt expanded and relocated to a 9,000 sq. ft. former door factory in San Francisco’s Potrero Hill neighborhood, forming the nucleus of the new DoReMi arts district. Hosfelt Gallery's program is built around artwork with a refined level of execution that offers new perspectives on critical discourses in contemporary art, culture, and politics. We represent an international roster of emerging to established artists whose work is grounded in a broad understanding of history — visual, cultural, political and social. Their idiosyncratic synthesis of knowledge and skill results in artworks that allude to tradition while incorporating new ideas, materials and methods.

Vision With Asia as our lens and art as our cornerstone, we spark connections across cultures and through time, igniting curiosity, conversation, and creativity. Asia is not one place. The ideas and ideals that we call Asian are countless and diverse. Some of the works we display pre-date written history. Others were recently created. Many have connections to works from other continents and other millennia. We explore these links, provoking discovery, debate, and inspiration. At the Asian Art Museum, artistic and educational programs empower visitors to discover the relevance of great artworks in profoundly personal ways. Immersed in our galleries, visitors ponder the universal values found in human expression. Through the bustle of daily programs, students of the world steep in cultures through art, music, dance, and tradition. In the clamor of our classrooms, children build bridges to old and new worlds. This is the vision of our Asian Art Museum. Mission Our mission is to lead a diverse global audience in discovering the unique material, aesthetic, and intellectual achievements of Asian art and culture.
