It's that time of year again! Benefit auction season. This LACE auction is another one of the LAartGuy's charitable installs, annually. Sure, it's another bunch of people trying to get their hands, on your money, but hey. Tax rite-off, socializing, drinking and people watching hardly gets better, than at these events. Who knows, if the bar is well stocked with libations of taste, perhaps purse strings will loosen. There is definitely some GREAT artwork up for sale, from some very generous artists like Steve Roden, and Liat Yossifor.
I'd also like to talk about Shana Nys Dambrot's curated selection of artist's; specifically Marjan Vayghan. This young Persian beauty is working in unexplored mediums, merging performance with painting, photography, readymades, and lightboxes. I just installed a show of hers at the Los Angeles Art Association's gallery on LaCienega; she is an absolute pleasure to work with, with the warmest, positive energy, fascinating history, and artwork produced, that I've experienced with such a young artist. Explore her further by seeing, or even buying her work at these two concurrent shows. Here's a picture of the beauty to whet your appetite.
