THIS WEEKEND
Join Los Angeles based art critic, curator, and author Shana Nys Dambrot for a spotlight tour of "The Fire of Heaven: Enrique Martínez Celaya and Robinson Jeffers," focusing on two of the most prevalent visual themes that run throughout the exhibition and Martínez Celaya’s overall practice — birds and the sea. Dambrot will lead viewers through the exhibition, pausing to reflect on the symbolism and moods evoked across the many poetic instances of avian and oceanic imagery.

OPENING AUGUST 5
Visit us this weekend to view the Currents + FLUX exhibition featuring local artist and educator Nancy Sevier.

“Nancy Sevier: Reprise” is a display of original sculpture constructed from found and discarded instruments. Using player pianos, guitar strings, and organ wires, Sevier repurposes and reshapes instrumental objects to create unidentified forms, demonstrating that even in brokenness there is a desire for wholeness and harmony.
