About Alec Huxley

Alec Huxley (B. 1980) specializes in painting spacey dream states and wild animal encounters.

 

He is based in San Francisco, California.


Description of Huxley’s work from 111 Minna’s former curator Micah LeBrun:

“Alec Huxley anchors this body of work with his signature style of iconic and suit-clad figures which seem to be suspended between dimensions or speak to ones consciousness slipping from reality to that of a lucid dream all the while traveling through and viewing these scenarios through the lens of a vintage space helmet. Conceptually, Alec’s subjects seem to be sourced from historical Americana and subcultures that exude a renegade ambience when remembered, like the beatnik movement or the whisky runners of the prohibition era. His ability to seamlessly overlap conceptual ideas, create a similar illusion like that of a locomotive resting on the ocean floor”

Rob Reger’s New Show: Dark Matters

Known for his highly popular comic books, graphic novels, and clothing lines from his series Emily The Strange – in addition to his gothic-macabre art style – Rob Reger’s latest works are refreshing pieces to feature at 111 Minna after nine years without this mainstay artist gracing 111’s walls. Rob Reger’s latest works exhibit his less well known but equally brilliant abstract artistic oeuvre, which is now presenting to the public for the first time in a comprehensive exhibition.

Emily Fromm is a visual artist living and working in San Francisco, California. Her style draws inspiration from traditional sign painting techniques, cartoons and comic books to create a nostalgic yet contemporary lens with which to view iconic city locales. The scenes in her paintings highlight treasured city businesses along with public institutions and people in the community who inhabit and shape our urban neighborhoods. So far her paintings have featured locations in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Las Vegas, New York, Montréal and London.

Originally born in Los Angeles in 1991, Fromm moved to San Francisco in 2009 to study painting, drawing and ceramics at San Francisco State University. She earned a BFA in Studio Art in 2013 and has since exhibited her artwork both locally and internationally. She has also painted several murals in the Bay Area, and recently completed her first permanent public mosaic installation for SFO Airport in partnership with The San Francisco Arts Commission. She currently lives and works as a full time artist in San Francisco’s Outer Sunset neighborhood.
