Yerba Buena Center for the Arts (YBCA) is one of the nation’s most innovative contemporary art centers. From our leading-edge exhibitions and performances, to our groundbreaking civic initiatives and community partnerships, YBCA is where creativity, people, and new ideas collide. We believe in thinking big about the role that arts organizations can play in making short, medium, and long-term/individual and collective transformation.

YBCA is a new kind of art center. One that expands and extends its impact beyond its walls. A center that convenes creative souls from all walks of life to instigate actions and spur movements that transform our cities and our lives. A center that’s in constant, conscious evolution, on the front lines of societal change.

Mission: We generate culture that moves people.

Vision: A community that thrives on inspiration.

Works inspired by comic books, games, video games and cartoons questioned our common dismissal of TV programmes, magazines from the corner shop or action heroes; Yiannis proved they can be sources of inspiration.

To this day, Yiannis goes on breathing life into paper and building worlds on his computer. I would like to believe he will never seize to do so.

PRESS RELEASE

Michel Saja's exhibiting work eschews specific influences, while still demonstrating comfort with the techniques and styles of the great 19th century romantic painters. He uses his art as a means to show the passage of man through the natural world, and the unexpected beauty that arises as man and nature try to assert their own forms in the world over long periods of time. Drawing inspiration from the centuries long transformation of the ancient Greek city, Aphrodisias, this latest collection examines the creative power of entropy, and the balancing order that humans impose. His dedication and openness to art have taken him widely through the world, and left us with a fine body of work.

Though war in general and economic and family conditions in particular have been inflicting my soul enough to the point of despair I could never put painting aside, for art is the only air I am breathing so far amidst all calamities. My sacred goal is to be genuine and master visual art language in my works side to side with fluent inspiration.

This unusual and perhaps unique art project is inspired by Dada, Surrealism, pop art, and conceptual art. Each cover uses a minimum of elements to create maximum “meaning” and explore:

It also evokes the DIY spirit of the alternative, punk, electronic, and dance music of the 1970s-1990s, and the now-vanishing pleasure of discovering new music in record store bins. Each cover is a sort of puzzle that asks: Can you imagine this music, and can you imagine liking it?
