Virtual Walkthrough

An artist can, whenever he or she feels like it, take things to a new level. In fact, this urge to challenge themselves and push the creative envelope is often nagging away at their brain. The question is, will the artist choose to listen or not? Will they take the plunge? Will they risk failure? Will they take their art to the extreme…?

On Saturday July 18, 2009 we'll be hosting an opening party at the Orange County Center for Contemporary Art, for the exhibition "LA to OC - emphasis:EXTREME". This exhibit brings ten of the downtown Los Angeles art galleries down to the OC to exhibit works of art from select artists. The galleries exhibiting are:

Bert Green Fine Art
Crewest Gallery
Deborah Martin Gallery
Hive Gallery
Los Angeles Center for Digital Art
MONA
Pharmaka
Phyllis Stein Art
Todd/Browning Gallery

This exhibition, curated by Jeff T. Alu, brings together emerging, mid career and tenured artists with a common emphasis: each is committed to taking their art and creative process to a unique imaginative level. The artwork on display will range from kinetic sculpture to neon creations, computer generated imagery to more traditional art forms.

“Joy’s voice is mesmerizing. This is the kind of album you want to
listen to over and over again until it permiates your soul. The songs
are written from a place few of us allow ourselves to go. The
instrumentation is remarkable. All and all- a beautiful representation
of music at its best. I’m so thrilled to have happened upon Joy
Shannon and the Beauty Marks and can’t wait to hear more from them.”
