It would actually be easier to list which of the Washington & La Cienega neighborhood galleries aren't having openings tonight. Except for
Klowden Mann's gorgeous new show of sugar-encrusted cyanotypes by Andrea Chung opening the night of Friday, September 6, and Blum & Poe, Roberts Projects and Thinkspace rocking the 14th, it's basically everyone.
Honor Fraser brings out drippy new still-life paintings from street art demigod Kenny Scharf;
Fabrik Projects hosts a pair of photographers ? one a documentarian, the other an abstractionist;
Walter Maciel shows a pair of very different abstract visions; at
Anat Ebgi, Tammi Campbell takes on the Modernist bro-canon; and Laura Krifka's masterful technique and cheeky wit lights up
Luis De Jesus.
Tomory Dodge makes a glorious, expressive mess at
Philip Martin Gallery; candy-coated abstract eccentric patterns and traditional modern plein air landscapes are the order of the day at
George Billis Gallery; both
Bruce Lurie and
Castelli Art Space celebrate the universe of works made on and with paper mediums; Ruth Pastine dives deep into the existential depths of color theory at
Edward Cella; Brittney Leane Williams creates bold, fresh figurative works with biblical underpinnings at
Zevitas Marcus; and
Paul Kopeikin shows meticulous abstract geometries by Eric Beltz and epic black-and-white landscape photographs by Mitch Dobrowner.
