Chinatown :: LA ‘Golden Structure’ A solo exhibition by Ken Garduno Art Exhibit Los Angeles





August 19th – September 10th, 2011
Artist reception: Friday, August 19th, 7-10p


LeBasse Projects :: Chinatown
932 Chung King Rd.
Los Angeles, CA 90012


Los Angeles, CA – LeBasse Projects :: Chinatown is proud to announce ‘Golden Structure,’ a solo exhibition from Los Angeles based artist, Ken Garduno.

In his new body of work, Garduno continues to explore themes of how people respond to one another, particularly in relationships. Influenced by the overly dramatic Spanish Novelas, Garduno puts into question our own relationships and suggests that real life can easily turn into soap opera-like situations.
Garduno sheds light on our tendencies to construct unrealistic expectations of our loved ones and explores the disintegration of these ideals. The exhibition title, ‘Golden Structure’ is based on an idea of this precious structure that slowly ages and falls apart.

In Garduno’s new exhibition, the artist returns with a matured body of watercolor and ink paintings. Known more by his monotone color scheme, Garduno’s characters are brought to life with a refreshing Technicolor palette. The artist shows us the difficulties in maintaining love and its relationships, as well as the tendencies to take things too far and serious. The central figures create an unsettling dialog riddled with jealousy, betrayal and a pronounced sense of sexual tension.

About Ken Garduno
Ken Garduno graduated in 2006, with honors in illustration from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena, California. After graduating, Ken pursued a career as a freelance illustrator/gallery artist. His work has been shown in galleries internationally, as well as in various publications, album art, and t-shirt designs. His clients include the New York Times, LA Weekly, LA Citybeat, SF Weekly, Esquire Russia, and the Pasadena Weekly.

smART Salons: There’s No Place Like Home Discussion: Sunday, June 26, 2 pm Santa Barbara Contemporary Arts Forum ADMISSION IS FREE


Santa Barbara Contemporary Arts Forum presents smART Salons: There’s No Place Like Home, a discussion of the meaning of “home.”

No question about it, the word “home” connotes an immediately identifiable group of ideas and images.  For those of us fortunate enough to have grown up in houses owned by our parents, they were the backdrop for our childhood memories—the places we played and argued, hung our artwork, and marked the door jam with pencil as we grew taller. For better or worse, the “homes” of our childhood represent to many of us a measure of the success our parents attained, an outward expression of how hard work pays off in comfort, safety, and the respect of the community.

Yet, recent reports state that Gen Xer’s are earning less than their parent’s generation, challenging a long-held belief that each generation will be better off than the one that preceded it. Part of the American dream has included the idea of home ownership as a means of improving the quality of life. But, with the percentage of U.S. households that own a home at its lowest point since 1998, what place does the home play in this new era? Who gets to own a home now, especially in a place like Santa Barbara? What are the alternatives to home ownership and how do we measure success?

Join us at the Santa Barbara Contemporary Arts Forum (CAFsmART Salon Sunday, June 26, 2:00 pm as the Independent’s own Isabelle Walker moderates a panel discussion exploring the meaning “home” in Santa Barbara. A variety of perspectives will be shared in the examination of the complexities of this seemingly simple term.  Invited panel guests include Casa Esperanza Executive Director Mike Foley, U.C.S.B. Economics Professor Charles Stuart, and Faculty member at the Southern California Institute of Architecture Peter Zellner. Following the panel discussion, a short presentation of images of alternative housing developments will be presented by Peter Zellner.  ADMISSION IS FREE

Home In The Weeds: New Work from Kevin Cyr Preview Link 941 Geary




View the Full Collection Here!

941 Geary is pleased to present Home in the Weeds, a brand-new collection of installations and 2D work by Brooklyn-based artist Kevin Cyr. The show will be Kevin’s first solo project at 941 Geary, with an opening reception on Saturday, April 30, 2011 from 6-9 pm. The exhibition is free and open to the public for viewing through June 4. Home in the Weeds is a personal reaction to the fragility of our current society. After the worst economic downturn since the Depression, a feeling of imminent doom remains. With jobs scarce, and government safety nets shrinking, one misfortune — a layoff, an injury, or missed payment — can transform a person's life beyond recognition. Home in the Weeds examines the idea of shelter as a safe haven for a future worst-case scenario as well as more optimistic notions of home and self-preservation.
A series of large-scale installations explore the idea of shelters at different stages or circumstances. Each serves a different function and ideas of mobility, concealment and protectionism play a role in their designs. A small, tag-along camper towed by an old Raleigh 3-speed bike is the most romantic of the installations. It expresses nostalgia for innocence and exploration and is stocked with items reminiscent of my childhood camping trips. A vintage tent is a transportable, but immobile shelter. Its canvas exterior disguises a built-out room with wood flooring, wainscoting walls and a wood burning stove. A third structure is a stationary shelter constructed from discarded materials. Old plywood, rusty sheet metal and various objects scattered around the piece allow it to be completely concealed if necessary. Protectionism plays the largest role in this urban fort. It’s equipped with a CB radio for communication with allies, peep holes for scanning the surroundings and weapons for a last resort. A site-specific installation — built into an oil pit used by the former smog shop occupant — resembles a bomb shelter. Stocked with the barest of survival necessities, this installation recalls the worse of doomsday prophecies. Themes of the exhibition are also explored through drawings, paintings, photographs, and silkscreen editions. Portrait paintings identify characters that inhabit the tag-along camper and the tent house; still life paintings celebrate specific objects included in the shelters; and diagrammatical drawings emphasize the design of each piece.
Kevin Cyr was born in Edmundston, NB, Canada, in 1976 and grew up in the paper mill town of Madawaska, Maine. Cyr received his BFA from Massachusetts College of Art in Boston and now lives and works in Brooklyn, New York. His work has been exhibited nationally and internationally, and has been published widely. He has always been interested in the industrial landscape and vehicles that have defined America. For the past couple of years, Cyr’s work has been focused on vehicles he has encountered on the streets of his neighborhood, as well as places he has traveled within the US and abroad. While the car remains an iconic status symbol in contemporary culture, Cyr finds beauty in derelict and unkempt vehicles, in particular, those often associated with working-class society.

On view:  May 21 – July 17, 2011
Tuesday - Saturday: 11 am to 5 pm and Sunday: Noon to 5 pm

Michele O’Marah: Video Portraits
Los Angeles-based artist Michele O’Marah explores the effects of popular culture, deconstructing in particular Hollywood genre conventions with both reverence and criticality. Her commitment to involving the arts community as an active participant has always been an underlying element in her work. This exhibition will present a series of video portraits of artists, musicians, and friends, inspired by Andy Warhol’s Screen Tests (1964-66).  The exhibition will include patterned backdrops or wallpapers for each “character.”  The artist will also present a series of still photographs, so that the complete installation ultimately acts as a community portrait. 

Special thanks to: Casa Magazine, Santa Barbara, CA; ForYourArt, Los Angeles, CA; The James Irvine Foundation, San Francisco, CA; Santa Barbara Independent; Santa Barbara News-Press; James Van Arsdale and Kimberly Hahn, Santa Barbara, CA; and Wayne McCall & Associates, Santa Barbara, CA.

*Friday and Saturday: 11 am to 5 pm and Sunday: Noon to 5 pm
Jennifer West's installation at home #9 will be on view until 9 pm

Home Show, Revisited
The reference to the community in Michele O’Marah’s solo exhibition in CAF's main gallery, Michele O'Marah:Video Portraits, provides a bridge to a public exhibition component co-curated by the artist and Miki Garcia, Executive Director. Reprising two of CAF’s most significant exhibitions, Home Show (1988) and Home Show2 (1996), the two invited 10 Los Angeles-based artists to reconsider the societal and cultural notion of “home,” by creating site-specific installations in residences throughout Santa Barbara. Artists include: Piero Golia, Evan Holloway, Bettina Hubby, Florian Morlat, Kori Newkirk, Jennifer Rochlin, Ry Rocklen, Kirsten Stoltmann, Stephanie Taylor, and Jennifer West. The homes will be open to the public on weekends throughout the run of the exhibition.  Visitors to CAF will be given a map and instructions for the tour.

The Indoor Mural Project: A Living Survey of Street Art Opening Party - Saturday, April 23rd, 6-9pm









  White Walls and Montana Colors are proud to present The Indoor Mural Project: A Living Survey of Street Art, a series of works by both local and international street artists. Since March 1st, 941 Geary has been playing host to a series of site-specific works by an impressive lineup of graffiti and street artists in the heart of San Francisco. The Indoor Mural Project is a living, multi-layered exhibition where street art enthusiasts are invited to observe the progression and transformation of a contemporary gallery space by some of the most exciting artists working today.



During the exhibition, 941 Geary has operated as a 3,000-square-foot blank canvas for the selected artists to use as a starting point to build, collaborate and riff off of each other’s work organically. The Indoor Mural Project aims to energize the clean, formal space of the gallery with an infusion of movement, action, reaction and a generous amount of spray paint fumes (courtesy of Montana Colors). Championing the movement for the last six years, Justin Giarla has been working tirelessly to foster a strong community of artists, spectators, collectors, writers and curators actively engaged in the ongoing dialogue of graffiti and street art. The Indoor Mural Project serves as a tribute to both the artists and the community that has developed around their work.  

This one day show features an opening party, this Saturday, April 23rd from 6-9pm! We're excited to invite you to come see the metamorphosis of 941Geary!
