This Sunday, November 7 @ AGCC
To Live and Draw in L.A. & Lisa Solomon

Yeah, I did it.  I made smart use of the opportunity presented by my last “official” show at Angels Gate Cultural Center to riff on aesthetic alpha & omega that is To Live and Die in L.A. (playing at Cinefamily on November 23!), thanks to the inspiration of title-suggestor Nicholas Klemek, whose intricate, [...]

Open Studios – Mass Emergencies – Artist Bailout: Renegade Bounty Exchange – San Pedro Studio Tour – Tomorrow, May 16

Sunday! Sunday! Sunday!

This space has been blank for a while, as I’ve been up to my neck in preparation of Open Studios at Angels Gate.  Sometimes you’ve gotta choose between doing your job right and busying yourself as an unpaid internet loudmouth.  Spring is always the busiest time of the year for [...]

Openings at Angels Gate This Sunday!

We’ve been working on two really exciting exhibitions at Angels Gate that open this Sunday (2-4pm, come on down!).  The first, Sojung Kwon’s Planning A Year: Mondays and Sundays, is a solo show in our main gallery that will display all the documentation of the daily “Actions” carried out on Mondays and Sunday [...]

The Longshore Unveiling Today!

About two years ago now, the Community Redevelopment Agency of Los Angeles contacted Angels Gate about curating a site-specific artwork for the La Salle Lofts.  We put together a process that looked at several Southern California artists and ended up commissioning AGCC Studio Artist Slobodan Dimitrov to design a photo-based labour mural.  Getting [...]

Is Your Back Up To Being A Curator?

12 hours of taxis, group meetings, meet and greets, studio tours in Korea will leave you carrying 20+ pounds of paperwork.

Really, though this post is about one of the many, major differences between art in Korea and the US.  Every show, no matter how small, usually has a small catalog or brochure [...]

The District Reviews Plain and Simple

I haven’t got a paper copy in my hot little hands yet, but Vy Pham from The District Weekly has reviewed Plain and Simple, one of the two shows that we’re currently showing at Angels Gate, and it’s also available online for your pleasure.

It’s not all swords and respirators for me these days, I’m still busy as ever over at AGCC, where we’re having a very busy Sunday. Cross-posted from the AGCC Blog.

Sunday is shaping up to be a busy day at the Cultural Center, with two gallery openings, a free pancake breakfast and the [...]

Finishing School: M.O.L.D. installation shots

Cross-posted from Up at the Gate.

I’ve been watching Finishing School in action as they transform half of Gallery A into a “hot zone-themed wet lab” and the other half into a multimedia cluster for their installation, workshop and performance, M.O.L.D. that starts Sunday. Lots of plastic sheeting is involved, along with petri [...]
