Ghost Signs of the Tenderloin:
Photography by Nan M. Castle

Exhibition Run: May - June, 2016

Ghost Signs are old and fading advertisements painted on the walls of buildings. According to Nan, they are remnants of our past, scraps of a long-gone aesthetic fashion, chronicles of commerce and industry in a young and energetic country.  Like the mosaics of Pompeii, they are the living exhibits of our collective urban archaeology.
