Supervisor Ross Mirkarimi's Third Friday Art Reception

Supervisor Ross Mirkarimi Hosts Art Opening
of Tim Gaskin’s Work



“My work is a statement on how artists and advertising brands become icons.”

On Friday, October 21, 2005, Supervisor Ross Mirkarimi hosts the monthly Third Friday’s Art Reception in his City Hall office, Room 282. This month’s featured artist is Tim Gaskin.

Tim Gaskin is a third-generation San Franciscan, pop artist, and television and print journalist. He has been influenced by left-coast politics, the sexual revolution, television, magazines, fashion, the HIV/AIDS pandemic, local art, and dance music. Gaskin uses his art to transform and enhance the environment of others. His work has been called “inspired pop art, each seeking the balance of nature and flow of energy with just the right mix.” His Superstar Collection includes strikingly vibrant Warhol-esque portraits of contemporary pop-culture icons. Gaskin is also the producer and host of Comcast’s first LGBT show OUT Spoken.
