Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays. Sat, Aug 14, 2010-Sat, Sep 11, 2010. Tanya Batura’s ceramic heads are now larger and more psychologically challenging. Her exquisitely crafted sculptures are historically linked to the sensibilities of Hans Bellmer and Louise Bourgeois. New York artist Will Yackulic's futuristic landscapes are created by thousands of marks from his typewriter on paper, or with palladium leaf and ink jet images of aluminum foil on polygonal canvases. His works are spatially confounding and sublimely mysterious. Exene Cervenka and Amir Fallah share the realm of collage, each to their own eccentric ends. Since the late 1970’s, Cervenka has drawn and collaged together language and fragments of Americana; summoning the light and the darkest parts of our history and contemporary culture. Her works are intimate worlds; systems of the moment, caustic and sublime; innate wisdom from scraps of paper. New artist to the gallery, Amir Fallah’s paintings are outrageous explosions of embellishment; mega memento mori images comprised of painted and printed floral cut outs. MORE >>

Tuesdays, Wednesdays, Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays, Sundays. Fri, Sep 24, 2010-Sun, Jan 9, 2011. this groundbreaking exhibition focuses on a turning point in the career of David Alfaro Siqueiros (1896-1974), an artist who is world-famous (along with Diego Rivera and José Clemente Orozco) as one of the three great Mexican mural painters of the 20th century. During the course of a seven-month stay in Los Angeles in 1932, Siqueiros painted three murals: Street Meeting, América Tropical and Portrait of Mexico Today. His aesthetically and politically challenging work met with resistance—Street Meeting and América Tropical were whitewashed shortly after they were created—and these three paintings were the only murals Siqueiros would ever make in the United States. Nevertheless, the Los Angeles murals proved to be decisive for Siqueiros in developing his concepts and techniques, and were equally decisive for generations of artists who followed in Los Angeles.
