Hibbleton Gallery presents "ADDITIONAL SPACE, a juried exhibition featuring work by 23 artists from the Biola University Art Department. ADDITIONAL SPACE challenges us to think about the many different types of spaces that we inhabit: physical, representational, architectural, abstract, compositional, psychological, social/relational, sacred/religious, and more. The show explores these themes through a variety of creative media, including: drawing, painting, sculpture, photography, and video.
Bookmachine presents "The Death of Kelly Thomas" a zine release. Local artist/writer Felipe Flores has created a short graphic novella of the final moments of the life of Kelly Thomas, a local homeless man who was killed by Fullerton police in 2011. Using only direct quotations from the audio recording of the encounter, Flores has created a powerful testament, and enduring witness of this local tragedy. Art and writing can be important ways of understanding, facing, and dealing with painful reality. Flores' work creates a powerful response, and opens dialogue about the increasingly disturbing trend of police brutality in America. The zine encourages us to ponder how much has changed, or not changed, since that fateful night in Fullerton--July 5, 2011.

oh, hello friend is happy to feature the humorous illustrator and designer Chelsea Delgadillo on Friday, April 3. Chelsea is a local BFA student at Cal Poly Pomona. She works in classrooms, shady lawns, or coffee shops where she seeks the input of friends, family, and even strangers. Chelsea’s process begins with doodling, then the lines are retraced with micron pens, and lastly she scans her drawings to add color digitally. Her illustrations feature dynamic character design, thoughtful use of color theory, and simplified shapes and depth. Each character is created to exist in a saccharine and vacuous universe where gravity does not exist and everything is slightly askew.
Also, Marjorie Kerr will be showing at LOLO: a boutique!
