History
Back to the Picture is the realization of an entrepreneur's dream. A family business, BttP is owned and operated by the Gomez family. Their love of art and people is demonstrated by the business's primary occupation of custom framing of customer's artwork, and by its secondary occupation of operating an art gallery specializing in Latin American and contemporary Bay Area artists. BttP works with interior designers and commercial clients, the general public, and professional artists in its framing business. The gallery hosts guest curators as well as group shows produced by BttP staff. In 2011, Back to the Picture\SoMa moved its business to a new space at 83 10th Street (between Market and Mission Streets). In 2016, Back to the Picture\Mission Bay moved its business to a new space at 1160 4th Street (between Channel and Long Bridge).
