Hey, so turns out Shepard Fairey and his wife Amanda have a gallery in L.A.! How cute is that?!
Ha, well, all girlish envy aside, this is probably a very good place to check out. The gallery opened up in 2003 (even though it's been an established project since '95) and is newly located in Echo Park. They only feature 6 exhibitions a year-- focusing mostly on contemporary/up-and-coming artists. They've had some pretty rad showings so far, including Banksy inspiration: Blek le Rat! Their place is intended to serve as a community space to expose eager eyes and ears to new art, lectures, and special events, and also to create a "forum for contemporary dialogue". Pretty sweet concept if you ask me. Who wants to accompany me on a visit while I'm in S.D.?? I'll drive! :)
