April Art Walk Round Up

DOWNTOWN LOS ANGELES — I have to admit something up front here: my gallery count this month was a little low. It was Downtown Art Walk night this evening. I ended up spending a decent portion of the evening at Pete’s, and the pre-party this month was definitely at my place, but in the middle I did manage to catch a few galleries. The shows I caught were amazing. This month I tried to take a few more pictures, so I’ll put those into my recap.

Update (Friday): I’ve put the pictures from this post and a few others I took last night into an April ‘05 Art Walk Set on Flickr.

Next I went over to Spring Arts Tower to hang out with Kjell from Gallery Row. We met up with some others and took the elevator up to the eighth floor to see the show at Iron Eye Gallery. I didn’t catch the whole thing, and plan to return for the official opening on Saturday, but what I saw (a lot of it photography) was really good.

Next on our gallery hit-list was 626 Gallery, which featured the show “Saints and Sinners” by Katy Allgeyer. Some interesting stuff mixing fortune cookie fortunes and religious iconography.

Next month Gallery Row celebrates its one year anniversary with a special party on May 12th. Definitely plan to be there.
