Gallery 16

On Tuesday evening, May 31st, in conjunction with Tucker Nichols' current exhibition at the gallery, Gallery 16 will host a special conversation with local artist Tucker Nichols and bestselling author Daniel Handler.

Topics which may or may not be covered include:

Art Vs. Books: Which Is Better?

San Francisco: The Birthplace Of Failure

Tools I Can't Work Without

Blame It On The Alter Ego

Who You Picture When You Picture The Audience

Collaboration Is Fun As Long As You Aren't Really Collaborating

I Will Now Choose A Topic You Hopefully Know Nothing About

What Do We Do With The Internet

The event is free, no tickets required.

Daniel Handler is the author of the novels The Basic Eight, Watch Your Mouth and Adverbs, and far too many books as Lemony Snicket.  He is the adjunct accordionist for the Magnetic Fields.

For his current show, Tucker Nichols has filled the entire gallery with his characteristic mix of objects, drawings, paintings and signs. He remains focused on the futility of the systems we devise to navigate the world, its overabundance of neglected things, and the messages we make to advertise nearly everything and seemingly nothing at the same time. This marks the first exhibition on the west coast to feature the full range of his work—in size, media, subject and approach - and a comprehensive look at his distinctive worldview. http://www.gallery16.com/index.php?page=exhibitions
