1.) Hibbleton Gallery presents a collaboration with Trabajo Press, entitled “I DO FLYERS” featuring the unsung heroes who make flyers, posters, and album artwork for all your favorite local bands. This show celebrates “behind the scenes artists” building aesthetics and worlds that the music can inhabit.
2.) oh, hello friend will feature artist and designer Ming Ong. Based in Los Angeles, Ming Ong’s artwork reflects her international upbringing and inclusive worldview. At first, Ming’s paintings seem to be just sweet, innocent illustrations of children and animals, hearkening back to classic children’s books. Upon closer examination, they reveal a darker, more dangerous side. Viewers are tempted to laugh at these humorous juxtapositions. Then they’re challenged to discern their deeper, hidden meaning. Indeed, beyond the bright colors, illustrated style, and nostalgic feel are thoughtful, incisive comments about society and culture. Her illustrations have been published in the New York Times, American Illustration 29, Village Voice, LA Weekly, The Stranger, Bitch Magazine, and many others.
3.) PÄS Gallery presents “Smile” the recent works of Michael Myers. Myers’ new collection of work explores gods, universes and good vibes. This past year his paintings explore a simpler character form, yet possess more complexity with multiple textures and layers. As an artist and designer, he likes to use mixed media with an emphasis of gouache and acrylics.
4.) Carpe Diem Experience presents an evening of imaginative works by the talented Dino Perez. His surreal illustrations have been featured on concert posters for Ellie Goulding & Morrissey. Explore his works while swaying to the beats of singer-songwriter Raymundo and the singer-songwriter stylings of Tavia.
