San Francisco sits at the epicenter of a revolution that is creating new tools, technologies and outlets for creative expression. The growth of the Internet industry – and software industry before it – continues to bring an enormous influx of creative people to the Bay Area from all over the country and the world. The neighborhoods surrounding South Park, Multimedia Gulch, the Mission and Potrero Hill have been transformed by the companies and individuals who have moved there in the last 5 years. Most of their work is channeled into the commercial space, which, though lucrative from a financial standpoint, is inherently conservative in order to accommodate the economies of a mass or "mainstream" market.
Kunststoff wants to support artistic expression in the non-commercial sector – where innovative and experimental art can develop more freely. By supporting local artists, Kunststoff hopes to raise the stature of San Francisco as a creative as well as technological capital. While the bay area has an advantage over New York in terms of technology, New York is typically considered a stronger ‘hot bed’ for creativity. San Francisco has the talent and technology, along with a stalwart commitment to innovation. But it needs a fresh approach to fundraising. KUNSTSTOFF aims to raise the funds, using the very technology driving the revolution. KUNSTSTOFF welcomes the support of government officials, industry leaders, artisans and art organizations who share our interest in seeing the San Francisco Bay Area flourish as an artistic and cultural center.
