A permanent gallery dedicated to the work of artist Ruth Asawa will open in San Francisco this spring. Located within the Minnesota Street Project in the Dogpatch neighborhood, the gallery's inaugural exhibition, "Ruth Asawa: Untitled," is scheduled to open on May 9th, managed by her family foundation, Ruth Asawa Lanier Inc.
The opening coincides with the centennial of Asawa's birth, providing a dedicated public space to honor her legacy and showcase her renowned loop-wired sculptures. This permanent venue ensures sustained access to her influential work, which explores form and material through industrial wire, solidifying her place within the cultural fabric of San Francisco and the broader art historical canon.
