Corner Contemporary
A Favorite Of Design Aficionados Celebrates Their New Clean And Light Location
By Natalie Way
Combining first-rate contemporary work with historical modern design, HEDGE GALLERY showcases art, furniture, design, and craft of the 20th and 21st centuries. Founded in 2003 by Roth Martin and Steven Volpe, the new 2,500 square foot gallery, settled on the corner of Pacific Avenue and Montgomery Street, encapsulates mostly contemporary exhibitions with important 20th century works that articulate their own historical connection to significant cultural and craft traditions. Hedge stands to bring forth original, rare, and accomplished work to the public view, representing such artists as Erna Aaltonen, Arik Levy, Tony Marsh, and Aaron Silverstein, among others. The gallery’s premiere exhibition presents sculpture produced in Murano’s furnace anfora by master glass artist Ritsue Mishima. Next month, Hedge will present the first San Francisco exhibition of work by Paris-based furniture and lighting designer Christophe Côme, whose work primarily with cast iron and glass is unmistakably contemporary and resonant of early modern design.
Hedge Gallery is located at 501 Pacific Avenue in San Francisco. Please call 415.433.2233 or visit hedgegallery.com
