Striptease at Distinction Gallery

Distinction is probably one of the best art galleries I've found in San Diego (North County) other than Subtext. And it's in my hometown of Escondido, so it's a trip down nostalgia street whenever I visited. This is the last weekend to see their show Striptease.

Get your mind out of the gutter, pervert!

Across from LACMA, they erected pieces of the Berlin Wall in commemoration of the 20th Anniversary of the fall of The Wall. It was just out in the open and anyone could walk up and touch it which is exactly what I did one Sunday afternoon.

My office recently moved to Downtown Culver City which means close to restaurants and the CuCi gallery district. I took a long stroll to the Corey Helford Gallery to see Andrew Brandou's new work, Mystic Garden. It's a bit of a departure from his last show, but still very colorful. The show closes next week.

Beyond Eden Art Fair

He and I headed to Barnsdall Park in Hollywood to see the Beyond Eden Art Fair. 15 galleries, some of them my favorites, gathered to show off some of their collections. It was a great afternoon in a little piece of L.A. I'd never explored before.

Barnsdall Park is also home to the Hollyhock House by architect Frank Lloyd Wright. I didn't recognize it as an FLW house and jokingly said to Him, "Well, it's no Frank Lloyd Wright." Oops-y!
