He has been collecting and avidly researching the postcards of India for over ten years. He will show and tell us about publishers, artists and studios—both Indian and European—mainly from 1898 to 1905. We will also get a glimpse inside Omar’s forthcoming book, Paper Jewels: Postcards from the Raj, including cards for Tuck by Mortimer Mempes, others by obscure German and Austrian artists and early American advertising postcards that featured India. The 75th Anniversary of the Golden Gate Bridge festivities will take place over this weekend with the major celebrations occurring on Sunday, May 27. On Saturday, May 26, Fort Mason Center will host a Bridge-related outdoor art show, as well as a Bridge-related indoor art show at SFMOMA’s facility at the Fort. And, there will be Bridge-related events on Crissy Field and the Marina Green.
