The 12th Annual ‘Everything But The Kitschen Sync’ group show at La Luz De Jesus opens this eve…

La Luz De Jesus Gallery proudly presents its 12th annual juried group exhibition, ‘Everything But the Kitschen Sync’. This gigantic, no-theme exhibition will feature work from some of the most relevant artists working today. The team over at La Luz has invited commercial illustrators, tattooists, scenic painters, students, and animators to submit work of a more personal nature. The show includes artists who have previously exhibited at La Luz, as well as a large selection of work from a brand new batch of undiscovered, underground talent. This is a wonderful forum to check out the latest art trends and get the first glimpse of tomorrow’s stars. It is also an incredible opportunity for art collectors to peruse more than 150 pieces of juried artwork by over 100 artists all in one viewing, and obtain undiscovered art at recession busting prices.
