Didnt see any posts on this so I thought I would chime in on it.
There is alot of amazing work in this show. I saw the book preview awhile back and was blown away by alot of the art.
Some of the artists have totally out done themselves.
September 16th is the opening.

To echo stuckie:
I had a chance to see the proofs of the book that will accompany this show over the weekend and got a sneak peek at the artwork that will be on display. No, this isn't some "nyah, nyah- look at cool me" bullshit post, this is just to let everyone know that they should plan on making it out to see this show- the art (like last time) is INCREDIBLE, and the installations from some of TC's best and brightest will knock your socks off. Southlanders should start planning roadtrip carpools and locals better come out in force.
So that's it- Otto's put a great show together and I suggest you come! Don't miss it!

At least one of, if not all three, from the Pineapple clan will be attending the opening - however briefly. Hopefully Little Pina will cooperate. Forgive us if we speak in baby-talk or tell you how pwecious you are, unless you're Martiki - we always talk to him that way.

Last's Ape show night was marargita/ape shit wonderful!!! But the traffic across the bay bridge SUCKED!!!! It took about and hour and a half to cross at 12:30 am. Why?
Read the CalTrans info:I 80
[SAN FRANCISCO BAY AREA]
IS CLOSED TO EASTBOUND TRAFFIC FROM THE JCT OF US 101 TO 7TH ST
/IN SAN FRANCISCO/ (SAN FRANCISCO CO) FROM 0100 HRS TO 0600 HRS TUESDAY THRU
FRIDAY THRU 9/23/05 - DUE TO CONSTRUCTION - A DETOUR IS AVAILABLE .
One AM my ape as*!!!! They closed it earlier than that!!!
SOOO, I highly recommend taking ANY OTHER bridge!!!!
Or leave EARLY! If you insist on taking the Bay Bridge, I recommend you head down Mission St to First st, take a right and enter the bridge that way. That was the ONLY entrance open last night, you should bypass most of the traffic that way. DO NOT take Bryant or Folsom!!! Good luck!

1:00AM tonight is Saturday, so it doesn't apply right? Tuesday through Friday makes me think they are working Monday night through Thursday night, but not tonight.

I think it took smiley and hour and a half because his direction screwed up ability reading....
huh?
wasn't it the burning beer truck? or construction?
A couple of years ago we had a party at our house, and they closed the West Bound direction (into SF) of the Bay Bridge at 2 am, and about half our city bound guests got turned around as they tried to go home. THAT sucked, for them.
See you tonight, we'll be home long before they close anything!

It was construction.
Now Caltrans says the construction will happen from 1 am on Tues to Friday.Do they mean Friday night/Sat am? Or was 1 am, Friday this past morning when I was stuck on the bridge. I am too tired to call Caltrans--any takers?
