art LA

Yesterday a great day of art in LA, starting at LA Louver. Was really taken away with the work of Matt Wedel.








Then it was over to L&M Gallery, which unfortunately will be closing soon. The work exhibited was very good, as was the architecture.






Found out the architects were wHY Architecture. It will be interesting to see what this space/spaces become next. Interestingly one building had been a power station and Ray Bradbury once lived on the site in a craftsman home.


We went over to Kayne Griffin Corcoran, at the new location designed by James Turrell.



Wonderful exhibit of James Turrell's Roden Crater. And we accidentally had the opportunity to experience a perceptual cell, when we filled out and signed the release form, went in there, and started the program, and then a staff member kicked us out. Apparently you needed to have a reservation, and someone needs to be there. 


Not the most approachable space (you have to be buzzed in), or staff. Then lunch in Culver City, after which more galleries. Most notable was Cherry and Martin and the work of Florian Morlat.





Then the work of Marisol Rendón at Luis de Jesus was very good.



Last stop was Bergamot Station, best experience there was Joyce Pensato at Santa Monica Museum of Art. And after seeing her work I am itching to draw.


A most inspiring day.
