""The space launches with Ruth Asawa: Untitled, a show curated by Asawa's daughters Aiko Cuneo and Addie Lanier, that speaks to Asawa's tendency to leave much of her art untitled.""
""When asked in 2002 why she never pursued a career in a major art market like New York, she replied, 'It's better for me to invest in San Francisco.'""
Ruth Asawa Lanier, Inc. will open a permanent exhibition space at the Minnesota Street Project on May 9. This 1,714-square-foot gallery will provide public access to Asawa's works, including her looped-wire sculptures, paintings, and community projects. The inaugural show, curated by Asawa's daughters, will focus on her untitled works, emphasizing the importance of the creative process over naming. Asawa's contributions to public art and arts education in San Francisco are also highlighted, reflecting her commitment to the local community.
