In the wake of David Lynch’s death, San Francisco is mourning. The renowned artist died at 78 on Jan. 15 and his passing sent shockwaves through the art world spread far and wide. Between his extensive and iconic filmography, revolutionary television productions and daring paintings and albums, he left his mark and people from all corners of the world felt the loss.

Lynch’s 78 years included over 40 years of a career in the worlds of film and television. His art was often disturbing and warm all at once and usually captured uncomfortable essences of the human condition. From “Blue Velvet” to “Twin Peaks,” his art often explored the darknesses that live beneath the surface of American success and happiness. He juxtaposed the idyll with the obscene. He was obsessed with the sheen of 1950s Americana and the oppressive ideologies it operated under in equal measure.

Outpourings of admiration and love for him manifested in countless fashions. His collaborators published letters of love while fans created a vigil at Bob’s Big Boy Diner, a Los Angeles staple Lynch frequented and professed his love for throughout his life. Multiple independent theaters quickly programmed his films.
