I just went to the exhibit, Man Made, at the Brand Library Art Center and was blown away. What an amazing show. It’s up until this Saturday, May 6th. I highly recommend going. Here is the description from the Brand Library’s website:
Man Made
On view: March 18, 2017 – May 6, 2017
Opening reception: Saturday | March 18, 2017 | 6 – 9 PM
Explore the urban ecology of our built environment through the distinctive artwork of seven Los Angeles based artists.
Brand Library & Art Center is pleased to present Man Made, an exhibition that explores the urban ecology of our built environment through the distinctive artwork of seven remarkable women: Jacqueline Bell Johnson, Anita Bunn, Chelsea Dean, Jennifer Gunlock, Jenene Nagy, Michelle Robinson and Sinziana Velicescu. Each artist, through their own unique practice, honors the physical act of creation and expands the language of environmental engagement. By exploring different ways of seeing, representing and connecting ubiquitous forms, shapes and objects in our surroundings, the artist abstracts reality; resulting in beautiful, anomalous truths, seemingly prophetic vistas, and meticulously rendered constructions. The exhibition features installation, sculpture, printmaking, photography, drawing and collage.
“The built environment is both the frame and the expression of mankind.”
