EXHIBITION DATES | Nov 6, 2018 - Mar 17, 2019

 

Somewhere in Between is a group exhibition consisting of twenty-four LA-based artists of various international origins, ethnicities and cultures.

Contemporary art is a globalized phenomenon fostered by an ever-growing network of relationships. Like fitting together parts of a puzzle, the exhibition puts works in dialogue with each other in ways that mixes ideas, techniques and materials. Several thematic groupings emerge with overlapping qualities that aspire to transform how audiences experience them. The exhibition’s themes demonstrate how this diverse group of artists are Redefining Histories; dealing with Loss, Longing and Legacy; addressing Appropriation and Cultural Hybridization; illustrating the evolution of Shifting Identities and Cultural Exchange; recognizing the effects of Globalization, Commodification and Trade; identifying the results of The Politics of War and Occupation; and reflecting upon Migration, Borders and an on-going development of New Perspectives.

We invite visitors to chart their own route in exploring the works of art, and to freely ask questions and pursue connections that they find most intriguing. Through a dialogue between various artistic disciplines and cultural scenes, this exhibition creates a space for exchange encouraging audiences to reflect on the ways in which we imagine, understand and engage with the world and with others.
