Spin: A New Twist on Board Games (Visual Art)

When:
Sep 02
  • Rare Device
  • 1845 Market St., San Francisco
  • See Map

At Rare Device, owner Lisa Congdon regularly showcases elegant and unexpected, playful designed objects. They usually don't take the form of actual games, although for this show, done by Jennifer Judd-McGee and Mati McDonough, it actually is fun and games. They take elements of vintage board games — the classic typography, the strong colors — and make them into modern images. Don't be surprised if you feel a round of Twister coming on; there's something undeniably powerful about the old boxes that have sat yellowing in your basement. Through September 28.
