Market Street Gallery is pleased to present "Icons That Last," the Java Huts of Richard L. Perri. The exhibition opens on March 2nd and runs through March 31st. There is a reception with the artists on Friday, March 20, from 6:00 to 9:00 pm.

Artist Richard L. Perri is widely-known for his large-format nostalgic paintings of some of San Francisco's best loved coffee houses, affectionately referred to as "Java Huts". These structures invite viewers to travel back into a remembered time of bustling activity along the waterfront as these joints teemed with rollicking blue collar longshoremen and roustabouts. They evoke a simpler time, a time of Herb Caen in the morning and cocktails at night, a time of rotary telephones and blue plate specials.
