Join Waystone for North Beach First Fridays as they feature the works of local artist Kevin Figueroa. Located on Market Street at the edge of the Financial District and North Beach, Waystone pairs its curated selection of beer and wine with a focus on contemporary Bay Area art. Figueroa’s work provides a sharp, intellectual aesthetic that complements the venue’s clean lines and elevated social atmosphere.
The Art: Figueroa is recognized for his focus on architectural abstraction and geometric interplay. His pieces often utilize mixed media to explore themes of urban structure, negative space, and the evolution of the city. His work is characterized by a balance of industrial grit and refined composition, making it a favorite for collectors of modern Californian art.
The Setting: Waystone offers a bright, airy environment that functions as a gallery-lounge hybrid. It is an ideal spot for those who prefer to view art with a glass of small-production wine in hand, away from the more crowded traditional dive bars of the neighborhood.
The Experience: As part of the First Friday circuit, this exhibition serves as a sophisticated bridge between the business district and the bohemian heart of North Beach. The opening nights are known for attracting a mix of design professionals, neighborhood locals, and art enthusiasts.
Details: The exhibition is open to the public. While the art is on display during regular business hours, the First Friday event offers a dedicated time to discuss the work with fellow enthusiasts in a communal setting.
