High Five Fridays @ Mirus Art Bar High Five with the Debut Residency of SweetPlot, 5 – 10PM @ Mirus Art Bar Join us for the debut of High Five – 5 hours of $5 drinks and $5 small plates featuring live band performance by our newest resident musicians SweetPlot. The small bites are also the debut of our SOMA Garden Kitchen, opening for full service in 2022. Live performance by: SweetPlot (@sweetplotmusic) Formed by musicians from multiple bands in the San Francisco Bay Area in 2014, Sweet Plot quickly arrived on stages across California and beyond. With their unique blend of funk, rock, soul and world music, Sweet Plot cooks up a phonic stew which never fails to energize a dance floor. Blazing guitar, jumping polyrhythms, screaming horns and powerful vocals all punctuate a vintage sound reminiscent of the rock and funk of the 1970s, but with a not so subtle modern polish. Since 2016 the group has released four studio albums of original material with a fifth on its way in 2022. Keep an eye out for new music as the group gears up to hit the road again and release a string of new singles, starting with “Molly Molly” on 11/10 and a brand new Xmas song to follow just in time for the holidays. Chakra art exhibit by: David Choong Lee (@davidchoonglee) David Choong Lee combines elements of graffiti, collage, graphic design, portraiture, and classical realism. He was born in Seoul, Korea in 1966 and moved to the US in 1993 to pursue traditional fine art at the Academy of Art. His first major body of work depicted San Francisco’s homeless in the Tenderloin, then evolved to depict the diversity of San Francisco’s population. Many of the city’s recognizable characters have shown up in breathtaking pieces on his signature wine and cigar boxes. In recent years, Lee has begun to shift focus from the figure to the abstract and geometric. These two styles come together in impressive assemblages that have shown in San Francisco, New York, Los Angeles, Denver, Tucson, Canada, and Korea. Though he has been in countless group exhibitions with Mirus Gallery over the years, this will be the debut of his first solo exhibition many years in the making! Interactive art video installation by: Alex Huxley (@alechuxley) Alec Huxley is a painter based in San Francisco. His work, primarily representational, is filled with contrast. Simultaneously stark and colorful, it focuses on landscapes of the American West Coast. Cinematic scenes serve as imperfect records of place, time and architecture for space travelers and wild animals. A self taught artist, his background includes studies in business, graphic design, photography, as well as a career in printing before committing to fine art full-time. ——————— COVID-19 MASK MANDATE & ENTRY REQUIREMENTS UPDATE(S): Until further notice, all persons entering Mirus Gallery must wear a face-covering (well-fitted mask) at all times, unless actively drinking.
