Dasha Matsuura is the Assistant Director at Spoke SF. Since 2009 she has curated contemporary art exhibitions at galleries and nonprofit venues as an independent curator. Matsuura has spent many years working with artists and galleries, as well as corporate and private art consulting clients. In addition, she has worked closely with nonprofit arts organizations and sits on the Board of Directors for Oakland Art Murmur helping to support the Oakland arts community. 

SPOKE is an art space specializing in new contemporary painting, sculpture and illustration with an emphasis in accessible programming. Started in 2010, the gallery now houses two locations, one in San Francisco’s Lower Nob Hill neighborhood and one in New York City’s Lower East Side. Each space rotates monthly exhibits that feature a wide variety of solo and group shows, many of which feature an international roster of represented artists. 

Throughout the year we also do pop-up shows, conventions and art fairs around the country and you can usually find us in New York, Chicago, Los Angeles or Miami at least once a year. In addition to Spoke Art, be sure to check out our sister gallery Hashimoto Contemporary (located just two doors down from us in SF) as well as our full service custom frame and print shop, Paragon Press, located in Berkeley, CA.
