Okay, so it’s Halloween tonight, but it’s also a great weekend for art in LA.
Saturday, November 1
Finishing School & Chris Hoff: Little Pharma Meditation Workshop @ Fringe Exhibitions. Chris Hoff, author of the OC Art Blog, will be introducing the public to meditation. Can’t beat that! Noon - 2 PM.
Darren Hostetter: In Our Nature @ Sam Lee Gallery (image at top). Darren is one of the very few artists working with military themes that really has both the background and knowledge to match the subject matter. And the work is beautifully painted. Reception is 6-9 PM.
Eric Johnson: The Maize Project @ Torrance Art Museum. Your last day to see the show, before we meticulously disassemble the resin monstrosity on Sunday morning. Closing reception 1-5 PM.
Lindsay Foster: Strangerly Connection @ Open Gallery. Closing exhibition for a show of photographic works by Lindsay Foster. Noon - 6 PM. Open is at 6375-B N. Figueroa St., Los Angeles, 90042.

McLean Fahnestock: The Very Act @ CSULB Gatov Gallery.

She’s also in Formings, a seven artist sculpture exhibition that I’ve curated for Angels Gate that opens on November 16. Reception is 5-7 PM.
