Sour Harvest

Esao Andrews

The opening night reception for Esao Andrews’ ‘Farewell Avery’ was just amazing. We were packed from the onset up until we closed the doors at about 11:30PM. The evening also served as the opening reception for Tony Philippou’s debut solo show as well as the debut of a small body of new work from Joshua Mays.

Esao didn’t disappoint his many fans and ‘Farewell Avery’ showcased 15 new oil paintings that perfectly highlighted his macabre take on the world around us. His debut Los Angeles solo show is almost sold out, so be sure to check out the available works before it’s too late.

‘My Heart Never Sleeps’

View an amazing selection of ‘Sneak Peek’ shots at Timothy at work on his debut Los Angeles solo show here.

The ‘fear fort’ featured in this series of sneak peek photos will be deconstructed, driven down to LA from Portland and put back together inside our gallery. Timothy will live and work in his ‘fear fort’ during the week-long installation process inside our gallery. He has also been sleeping and creating in the fort for the past few months inside his studio during the creative process for ‘My Heart Never Sleeps’. The fort itself will serve as a sort of mini-gallery within our gallery showcasing an array of small and affordable works.

Opening: Fri, Nov. 6th 7-11PM

The opening reception will feature a special musical performance from Lovers
