Join us this Saturday, April 14, 4 - 7 p.m. for the opening reception of "Tomorrowland," a group exhibition curated by Rory Devine, featuring works by Lisa Adams, Jeff Colson, Sean Duffy, Kathleen Johnson, Marion Lane, Pat Murch, Patrick Nickell, Rebecca Ripple, Richard Roe, Matthew Scarlett and Keith Walsh. This exhibition posits the question: How will work made in the present be read in the future without a contemporary context? . http://cb1.co/aq . . . #CB1Gallery #RoryDevine #tomorrowland #GroupExhibition #LisaAdams #JeffColson #SeanDuffy #KathleenJohnson #MarionLane #PatMurch #PatrickNickell #RebeccaRipple #RichardRoe #MatthewScarlett #KeithWalsh #ContemporaryArt #当代艺术 #當代藝術 #kunst #arte #ArtsDistrictLA #LosAngeles #DTLA #ArtsDistrictLA #ArtGallery #ContemporaryArtGallery https://ift.tt/2qt3fTY

Come join us this Saturday, April 14, at the opening reception for artist Junghwa Hong's first solo exhibition, "Veiled." . http://cb1.co/ap . Junghwa Hong chose the burqa, a long, loose, enveloping outer garment that covers the entire female body, including the face, as a metaphor for various cultures’ coercive efforts to hide women’s identities, restrict their freedom, and reduce their capacities to see, hear, and have a voice. Multiple paintings of covered women leading daily lives filled with work, friends, resistance, and child rearing are both poignant and beautiful. A large painting of a ceremony from Hong’s native South Korean culture alludes to women’s mandated labor but excluded participation, and paintings of leaders of the #MeToo movements in South Korea and in the United States laud women uncovering, exposing, and resisting gender-based violence around the world. . . . #CB1Gallery #JunghwaHong #veiled #painting #CulturalCommentary #ContemporaryArt #当代艺术 #當代藝術 #kunst #arte #ArtsDistrictLA #LosAngeles #DTLA #ArtsDistrictLA #ArtGallery #ContemporaryArtGallery https://ift.tt/2JD1uMP

Thank you David S. Rubin and ArtScene for recommending Kevin Larmon's exhibition "slipping in and out of phenomenon." Show closes this Saturday, April 7. Do not miss! . http://cb1.co/ao . Image: Kevin Larmon, "ferrari red," 2017, acrylic automotive paint and clear coat on wood panel, 18 x 18" . "Larmon calls the circular, elliptical, and irregularly shaped cut-outs in the paintings "glory holes,” which is slang for holes in the partitions between the stalls of men's rooms and the booths of adult video arcades (hence the subtle humor in the exhibition's title). The appeal of these paintings nevertheless extends beyond the artist's reading of the imagery. In "ferrari red," three equally spaced circles could just as easily be interpreted as three dots at the end of a sentence or a visual pun on the extensive art historical tradition of the triptych. In "tesla blue," an undulating shape that approximates a figure eight suggests an amoeba, a bowling pin, or a key hole. No matter how you read them, these paintings provide fun and stimulation for both the brain and the eyes." —David S.

Installation view of Nathan Hayden: "Strong Magic" at CB1 Gallery. . http://cb1.co/ai . Growing up in the woods of West Virginia in a log cabin built by his father, with early interests in biology and engineering, Hayden developed an affinity for patterns and structures found in nature. His initial exposure to the outdoors proved formative in how he chooses to abstract the world around him. . . . #CB1Gallery #NathanHayden #StrongMagic #mural #FeltPainting #abstraction #AbstractArt #ceramic #sculpture #watercolor #ContemporaryArt #当代艺术 #當代藝術 #kunst #arte #ArtsDistrictLA #LosAngeles #DTLA #ArtGallery #ContemporaryArtGallery https://ift.tt/2pBEVi4

Thank you Emily Nimptsch for listing Georganne Deen's solo exhibition at CB1 Gallery as one of the Winter 2017 highlights on @woventalepress. . http://cb1.co/al . "As a hub for all things cutting-edge, the uber-trendy CB1 Gallery housed the scathing Georganne Deen exhibition, "Psychic Violence," this season. These painted portraits of ghoulish CEOs, aristocrats, and government officials delve into issues of obscene wealth and corruption while exposing widespread apathy within our own society. Inspired by the fearless political directness of Otto Dix and Francisco Goya, Deen reveals the sliminess and greed of some elites in their quest to obliterate peace and well-being of the masses. . In one of the show’s centerpieces, 2016’s "Lew Ranieri: Architect of The Toxic Bundle," the artist depicts the soul of the man responsible for the 2008 financial recession. As a greedy sub-prime mortgage broker, Ranieri is depicted as a semi-reptilian creature, and other offenders as gruesome zombies and aliens with horrifying tentacles dangling from their mouths." . . . #CB1Gallery #CB1Artist #GeorganneDeen #BestShow #2017WinterHighlight #EmilyNimptsch #WovenTalePress #WTPCentral #LosAngeles #ContemporaryArt #painting http://ift.tt/2px4p17

Nathan Hayden, "We are Landscape 9," 2017, ceramic, 18" x 18.5" x 18", part of his solo exhibition "Strong Magic," on view through April 7, 2018. . http://cb1.co/ai . The clay sculptures inhabit the space like figures or creatures, the warm purple-pink tone of their exposed earthenware surfaces imbue them with a fleshy quality, while their roughness evokes that of adobe houses. The imagined creatures are composites of simple shapes culled from animal and human forms. . . . #CB1Gallery #NathanHayden #StrongMagic #ceramic #sculpture #ContemporaryArt #当代艺术 #當代藝術 #kunst #arte #ArtsDistrictLA #LosAngeles #DTLA #ArtGallery #ContemporaryArtGallery http://ift.tt/2HP7RdY

Kevin Larmon, "re fruit," 2017, acrylic automotive paint and clear coat on wood panel, 18" x 18". . http://cb1.co/ag . Larmon’s work explores the painting’s surface, and its liquidity; he has envisioned his painting as a creation of a complex life form, involving content, emotion, thoughts, dreams and libido under the skin of paint. The impenetrable surfaces of the new work are interrupted by one or more holes (which the artist calls “glory holes”) uniquely and irregularly shaped, like an inverted Arp cut-out. . . . #CB1Gallery #KevinLarmon #SlippingInAndOutOfPhenomenon #painting #ConceptualArt #AutomotivePaint #GloryHolePainting #ContemporaryArt #当代艺术 #當代藝術 #kunst #arte #ArtsDistrictLA #LosAngeles #DTLA #ArtGallery #ContemporaryArtGallery http://ift.tt/2plsk2G

Installation view of Nathan Hayden, "Heavenly Days of Earthly Decay," 2018, pigment emulsion on industrial wool felt, 60" x 42". . Exhibition info: http://cb1.co/ai . Combining geometric shapes and patterns that symbolize elements of nature the felt paintings depict psychedelic landscapes. Each composition contains a circle representing a celestial body, the sun, the moon or a distant star or planet, marking the passage of time or changing of seasons. A palette that combines bright pinks, oranges, greens and blues with muted earth tones is bonded to wool fibers, refracting light, lending the colors a soft glow. . . . #CB1Gallery #NathanHayden #StrongMagic #mural #FeltPainting #ceramic #sculpture #watercolor #ContemporaryArt #当代艺术 #當代藝術 #kunst #arte #ArtsDistrictLA #LosAngeles #DTLA #ArtGallery #ContemporaryArtGallery http://ift.tt/2FPjTDK
