Opening Reception with the Artist: Friday, September 12th, 6-10pm
Brian Flynn is the coolest nerd you’ll ever meet. He grew up in Texas as a self-proclaimed Star Wars freak that was inspired by skateboarding, punk rock, action figures, robots and spacemen. He now calls San Francisco home and keeps himself busy as the creative director and co-founder of Hybrid Design. Over the years he has built a stellar client list including Nike, Apple, TED, Levi’s, Starwood Hotels, Lucasfilm, Juxtapoz Magazine and more. He is also the driving force behind the Super7 store, a retail brand he created to sell limited edition toys, apparel and publications that celebrate Flynn’s fascination with vintage Kaiju. Brian has participated in many group shows with Subtext over the years, and Memories of Tomorrow marks his second solo exhibition with our gallery.

Fenix Rage NEW Bosses Trailer

FENIX RAGE NEW BOSSES TRAILER REVEALED; GAMERS TO CRY FOR THEIR MOMS SEPTEMBER 24 
Every good action-platforming game will have fun boss fights. The slightly better ones bring smiles, frowns, and some not-safe-for-prime-time words and phrases. 

And then you have that rarified air of knuckle-whitening, controller-throwing, mommy-crying, hardcore boss fights that will keep you coming back in a fit of pain and rage and obsession and desire for just one more try. Fenix Rage features nine devious boss encounters that will shake out the soft, weak, “hand-held” gamer, and temper players into steely-eyed, grim-faced, ice-running-through-their-veins hardcore gaming savants. 

Check out the new Fenix Rage Boss trailer and then ask yourself this question: Will you have what it takes to triumph or will you be just another Rage Quitter?
