In January I went to the opening of Untitled, an art fair that’s new to the Bay Area. As they did in Miami, the fair wildly excited me. It’s more than just an art fair. It’s exclusively contemporary art (which is my jam) and, it’s undoubtedly well curated. The space, Pier 70 sits along the water in San Francisco down the street from the Giants stadium. The flow was almost ethereal. I had never been to the space before but I heard when tech conferences happen there they are dry, filled with crowded booths and not a curated experience.

The Opening of Untitled
My first experience with Untitled was a couple years ago in Miami during the famed Art Basel. It was one of those off-shoot satellite fairs that every artist and their fabulous cohorts told me was a must-see. I was floored at Untitled’s use of space and show of contemporary work in 2014. So you can imagine my excitement when they announced they’d be coming to San Francisco in January. This is the first time the international fair has exhibited in the Bay Area. It’s programming is top notch and is accompanied with it’s own live radio coverage. Why is this significant? Because the S.F. art scene is preparing to put itself back on the international map… and that my friends makes it an exciting time to be an art nomad in these parts.
I’m heading to the Press and VIP preview today. If they let me, I will be Snapping (@LuCurates) and might even attempt to go LIVE (fb.com/lucurates).

Making Choices
I woke up parched. Grabbed some water and look at the clock. It was 3:30 in the morning except this Thursday, I had nowhere to go. So why on earth was I awake at this ungodly hour? I spend the next few hours trying to sleep before grabbing Dom and heading to the pool deck for early morning water polo practice. I fully intended on crawling back into my comfy bed but driving back home I realized I had a choice. I could choose to be happy or at least complete one of my “happy tasks,” before 6:30am.
