Yesterday we attended the last day of the FOG Design+Art Fair at Fort Mason, sort of a mini-Art Basel bringing together gallerists from around the world for an incredible sampling of current and emerging artists. I was a bit skeptical of the $40 entrance fee because I’m cheap, but it was well worth it, and we’ll be back next year. A sampling of some of the works that caught my attention are below.

Paintings by Sesse Alangwe:

Fiber works by Sheila Hicks, who currently has an exhibition at the SFMOMA:

“Woman with Ice Cream Cone” by Kota Ezawa, which is painted on 4 panels to create a 3-dimensional look:

A giant photograph of the ALICE CERN particle accelerator, similar to one that Adam worked on in grad school (here he is posing with the photo):

A series of drawings painted over photographs of hands, tiled “Cat’s Cradle #6,” by Asher Liftin:
