I remember Capp Street with fantastic installations by Ann Hamilton and Bill Viola. At the SFMOMA the incredibly beautiful GNOMON. For me that was the high point of San Francisco's art scene in the 1990s. A brilliant collaboration by Bay Area artists and designers, a brilliant collaboration between the Interim Office of Architecture, Tom Bonauro and Voice Farm.

The guy with the megaphone at the end was comedy gold. It was like a Buster Keaton sight gag but with dialogue.

LOVE the singer at the end! Best version ever of that song.

I think the artist San Francisco have left and are waiting their time to return. Who knows when that will be. RIP San Francisco.

Never cared for the term Mission school since I lived in the Sunset but showed at Blondies Bar and no grill , ATA and some coffee shop on Valecia . i viewed it as a revival of Bay Area Funk, Ruby Neris dad being in that , at the time . There was a great little gallery Singing in the Stone amoung others but long gone and forgotten out on Taraval
