Paul Madonna in Conversation with Gary Kamiya
About this Event
Both Madonna and Kamiya have spent decades observing, interpreting, and chronicling San Francisco. Madonna is best known for his distinctive drawings of the city—works that balance architecture, atmosphere, and narrative—while Kamiya has explored San Francisco through writing, history, and a deep attention to place.
Together, they will discuss the city as subject and inspiration, the relationship between observation and storytelling, and how San Francisco continues to shape their respective practices.
