    WHAT Architect WHERE Notes Zone 1: Fisherman’s Warf and the Piers + North Beach Pier 39 is a shopping center and popular tourist attraction built in 1978. The marina is also home to the floating Forbes Island restaurant. The sea lions at Pier 39 have become a tourist attraction in their own right. Although the reason for their migration to the pier *** Pier 39 Warren Simmons Pier 39 is unclear, the refurbishing of the docks in September 1989 required the removal of all boats from that area, leaving large open spaces for the sea lions to move into. Once the project was completed, boat owners returned, but did their best to navigate around the sea lions; no efforts were made to encourage the new guests to leave. Aquarium of the Bay was built in 1996 as an aquarium. It added additional attractions to the original building and has 273 species and more than 60,000 fish. Sharks circle overhead, manta rays sweep by and seaweed sways all around at the Aquarium of the Bay, where you * Aquarium of the Bay ?

    Hou Beiren at 100 百岁北人百岁北人 Contents Director’s Preface 5 Celebrating Hou Beiren at 100 7 Mark Dean Johnson My One Hundred Years: An Artistic Journey 13 Hou Beiren Plates 19 Biography 86 3 Director’s Preface Two years ago, at the opening of Sublimity: Recent Works by Hou Beiren, I proposed a toast to Master Hou: “… it was not in the plan prior to this moment, but I hope to present another exhibition of your works two years from now to celebrate your 100th birthday.” Master Hou was a little surprised by my proposal but replied affirmatively right at the moment. Thus we are having this current exhibition – Hou Beiren at 100. In the long course of human history, 100 years is just a blink of the eye. Yet when it comes to a man, 100 years is certainly a magnificent journey, especially considering the vast era of tremendous socio-political changes in modern China that Hou’s life and times encompass. Growing up as a village boy in a small county of Northern China, Hou had lived in China, Japan, and Hong Kong before relocating to the US sixty years ago. Witnessing the ups and downs, whether first-hand in China, or as a sojourner overseas, Hou never gave up his passion for painting. In fact, through painting he had been searching for his “dream”, “ideal” and “soul”, as he wrote in his statement. The mountains and valleys, rivers and creeks, trees and flowers, clouds and mists, waterfalls and rains, are all his heartfelt expressions in the means of ink and colors, and the yearning for a homeland in his dream.

But secretly, everyone likes it a little, and having guests from out of town is the perfect excuse for cynical old-timers to go. What's It Like? All San Franciscans love to hate Fisherman's Wharf. Content never to visit the area, they complain of the tacky shops selling cheap souvenirs, the "novelty" museums whose novelty has long worn off and busloads of tourists blocking the view to Alcatraz. But secretly, everyone likes it a little, and having guests from out of town is the perfect excuse for otherwise cynical old-timers to "force" themselves to go. And it is possible to have a cheap, good time. Just avoid the wax museums and the "I'm With Stupid" T-shirt stands, and what's left are some of the best views in the city, fresh Dungeness crab and the ever-amusing sea lions. Last year, almost 12 million people made their way to the Wharf. In international surveys, it ranks as the No. 1 destination for SF-bound visitors, right ahead of Chinatown and the Golden Gate Bridge.

All rights reserved. 3 INTRODUCTION Dear members and friends of eabh, Photographs are a key part of the archival collections of many financial institutions. Their emotional charge, their documentary power, their immediacy and universality set them apart from other archival documents. Used well, they provide an asset for any financial institution. This volume features articles from 17 financial institutions in eleven different countries. Almost 300 photographs provide glimpses of institutional practice over a span of 150 years. The photographs reveal stories about staff members, office buildings, and money; and they tell us about fashion, cultural movements, financial and industrial innovation, poverty, gender, colonization, leisure, and much more. This issue is the first of a series, and part of a wider project to explore the connections between finance and photography. eabh would like to invite its member and partner eabh institutions to join in by contributing to the second volume of the series.
