We are very excited for our very first event at PROJECT with our friends at CARTWHEEL! The 4 day pop up which opens on March 21 is like it's own little art fair and all are welcome!
Here is some "official" info:
LA’s most
forward-thinking art venture, CARTWHEEL, announces its second annual pop-up art
exhibition at Hollywood’s new gallery space, PROJECT Gallery. CARTWHEEL’s pop-up will feature
eight artists, comprised of street, outsider, surf, and new contemporary
artists from around the U.S., most from the national art fair circuit,
many of whom have never shown in Los Angeles before, selected by CARTWHEEL
founder Cindy Schwarzstein. This is an opportunity for collectors and art
enthusiasts to immerse themselves in current art and connect with the artists
and the larger creative community. By combing fresh, bold art with daily
interactive events, CARTWHEEL creates a mini-art fair-like environment at
PROJECT Gallery space. This four-day art event consisting of installations,
performances, and artist meet-and-greets will commence with an
open-to-the-public exhibit on Thursday, March 21, from 7pm to 10pm.

screen prints on both canvases and walls; his taboo topics are presented with optimism

primitive
