Secession Art & Design opened our Bernal Heights location in August of 2007, and has since grown to represent over 50 independent artists and designers. Our retail location is a gallery, boutique, and workspace combined, creating an untraditional storefront that allows customers to experience curated shows by owner, Eden Stein, and see the process of art being made in-house by Heather Robinson.
Summer has been bright and optimistic curating Secession Art & Design's 16th Anniversary SF Pop-Up (save the date August 24-27). Our talented artists have been letting in the summer breeze and creating in their studios. What blank wall in your oasis needs an art refresh for summer dining and relaxing?

Phillip's unique style of photomontage juxtaposes nature against stock indexes from financial newspapers. As the late-day sun hits, these gold beauties begin to glow.

In her piece Nothing Short of Colorful, Shiri experiments with glitter and glow-in-the-dark paint to add a touch of childlike wonder. These impressionistic abstracts are a welcome splash of color that will make any room in your abode feel vibrant and refreshing.
Read MoreOne of my favorite SF artists, Victoria Veedell, often takes day trips north to the Russian River. She captures the light and motion of the water so beautifully in her large-scale oil paintings! This enchanted place is a delight, with golden hues in the morning, earthly tones in the afternoon, and magenta hyper-real sunsets in the early evenings.
