_ DRAWING (Los Angeles) at Another year in LA gallery.
May 17, 5pm– 8pm. 2012 LA Times review

In 2012, Another Year in LA is mounting three survey exhibitions, Painting(January – March), Sculpture and now…DRAWING (Los Angeles) that exemplifyartists working locally (Los Angeles and California, respectively).

Each exhibition is exploring an aspect of the way that each artist makes an important contribution to their discipline; Painting, Sculpture and Drawing, from how work occupies space in the gallery to how each artist determines focus and direction in their art making process.

DRAWING (Los Angeles) opens this week featuring works by : Jackie Freedman, JohnKnuth, Stas Orlovski, Christopher Russell and Alisa Yang .– all are based in LosAngeles.

Mark-making has been a part of the human DNA since the beginning of time and the range of work in this exhibition celebrates that act. Most of what could be considered drawing is explored in this exhibition from traditional graphite on paper (Jackie Freedman and Stas Orlovski) to the marring of the image with a knife scratching the surface (Christopher Russell) to collage with pen & ink(Alisa Yang) to drawing on canvas with an ignited automobile flare (John Knuth) - this exhibition explores the action of mark-making with exuberance.

_ The Patter of Tiny Brains curated by Doug Harvey 2012, 323projects
For this group show sourced from dozens of contributors, Harvey presents a rotating selection of audio generated by children, up to and including adolescents.

Visitors who call into 323 Projects’ phone number will hear audio ranging from baby noises to musical performances, and a variety of surprising sound recordings performed by kids. In presenting the work of children, Harvey encourages listeners to bring serious, respectful aesthetic attention to works of performance otherwise disregarded as immature and amateur. This exhibition challenges value systems that deem children's creative output trivial or inconsequential, and instead critically and enthusiastically seeks to reframe the discourse surrounding notions of youth, professionalism, and creative expression.

323 Projects invites you to hear The Patter of Tiny Brains by calling

(323) 843-4652 or (323) TIE-IN-LA

The show is open all day and all night, every day of the week. Visitors are encouraged to call back often to hear audio tracks, as works will rotate throughout the course of the exhibition.
