LA Art Galleries / Contemporary Exhibition Tour

LA Art Galleries / Contemporary Exhibition Tour

Thank you for joining me on this contemporary art tour! We start with Oliver Lee Jackson's work at Blum Gallery, where each piece is like a machine designed to move the spirit. His art asks us to feel rather than interpret, emphasizing personal reactions over fixed meanings. Next, we explore Gabriel Mills' work at François Ghebaly, where he examines spirituality, time, and introspection. Using triptychs, he highlights the tension between unity and fragmentation, with his textured, layered paintings creating a visual narrative that echoes the sacred significance of the number three. Lastly, at Lowell Ryan Projects, Nicole Mueller's lively, fluid paintings capture the inexpressible emotions we carry within. Her playful use of color and movement invites viewers to reflect on the ever-evolving nature of human emotion.

When one doesn’t create art or understand the beauty of abstraction, a common knee jerk response is that it is easy or doesn’t take much time. Nothing could be further from the truth. If it was “easy” to do and always compensated generously, everyone who could create it would happily do so. Some of those canvases alone are hundreds of dollars (or more). The color (acrylic or oil) cost more than the canvases. I imagine some of these works took months or years.

Can you tell me please how these artist get into galleries? I've only been painting for 3.5 years now and my art surpasses this by miles. No thought no design no center of interest

I'm not seeing anything that raises this exhibit out of the overall art noise of the day... Sorry.
