Modern Eden Gallery

the good: love the space and the work is decent.
the not so good: i went there for open studios. the owner was there perched behind the desk talking to the one other person in the gallery who was obviously a friend. at no time did he even bother to say hello or acknowledge my presence. normally i would let it go as i am not overly chatty myself, but this is open studios weekend in sf. this is a time when artists interact with other artists and potential patrons. it was just awkward. i regret taking the time to go there when i could have gone to other galleries.

They always have a great display going on. Their features are carefully curated and I’m always seeing something new. (I just wish their space was bigger so I could see even more art!)

Excellent gallery with intelligent presentation and representation. The art is creative and fun! The gallery is just the right size and in a convenient location. Friendly owners too

I have curated shows with Modern Eden for three years now, and running an international art site (Warholian) I can say hands-​down this is one of the best galleries in San Francisco. They present wonderful exhibitions with artists that are not only technically sound, but also collectible. They offer first time collectors and those that of been collecting for a while an opportunity to add important works to their collection. I work with Modern Eden because Bradley Platz and Kim Larson (the owners) are two of the most professional individuals within the art community. They care for their collectors and the artists (which can be a rarity at times). They also love art with a passion which is reflected in every show they present.

I have been collecting art from Modern Eden for 3 years now and am delighted with what they have brought to the walls. The artists they feature are interesting and they have great subject oriented group shows throughout the year. I find their pricing on artwork to be very fair as well. Kim and Bradley, the gallery owners, are wonderful people and great company. I am on their collector preview email list which allows me to see the art online before the opening. They have been very helpful when I have called to reserve art in advance. Some pieces sell very quickly, so arrive early to the gallery receptions if you can and be prepared to find something you will like.
The ME receptions are a great to-​do in San Francisco, and the gallery is located near a number of restaurants /​pubs so you can dine or chat with the people you meet once you are done finding some very cool artwork.

ART, gallery in North Beach? YUP
Well it is so fancy look’in I almost kept going
Considerate curation that respects vision and craft at a price point where we can all
begin collecting or at least get some treasures for others.
A combination of inventiveness and mastery with classic, cutting edge, whimsical, foraged, too many adjectives to mention styles.
See for yourself.
