For an art experience to remember - come to Los Angeles
LA has always been a cultural magnet, and we don’t mean Hollywood… Â-
Writers like Thomas Mann, the composer Stravinsky and artists like David Hockney have long since graced the cultural chambers of Los Angeles.
Today, there are close to one hundred private art galleries in Los Angeles. Many others flourish by virtue of selling prints, drawings, paintings, and sculptures–more than any other western city apart from New York.
Emerging art galleries
Emerging art galleries offer a treasure trove of innovative and exciting new artists, a fresh application of mediums, and fascinating techniques. The art experience in Los Angeles is anything but passé.
Speaking of emerging art galleries immediately brings to mind the variety of galleries where modernism is alive and well.
Modernism
Los Angeles always has a home for innovative, excited, ambitious artists seeking to challenge or express ageless issues through paint and canvas. The sophistication of these artists is breathtaking and thought-provoking in their beauty. The awe elicited by today’s painters and their reflection on modern society and other greats is simply a delight to the senses.
Reflection
In LA and worldwide, fine art provides opportunities for reflection, inspiration, and renewal by drawing us out of our physical surroundings into a world of potential, grace, and encouragement. These elements combine to feed the soul and very heart of humanity. And exhausted humanity, considering the woes of our planet today. We believe that more people should seek out the sophisticated expression of the human mind in all its myriad forms.
Happy brain
Many studies have proven the mental benefits of creating art. However, merely viewing an image created with devotion releases dopamine – our ‘feel good’ brain chemical. Humans have been fascinated by and drawn to creating art since time immemorial. Looking at art entices us into the time and place the art depicts, giving our brains the feeling of escape.
The next time you feel overcome with stress and confusion, why not give your brain some breathing room and visit a gallery? Our interest and participation create receptive energy around the art scene, helping it flourish and continue for those who come after us.
Don’t let the feeling of ‘I don’t get it’d rob you of the experience. When art elicits an emotion for you, you do ‘get it.
Life is short. Make space for art in your world.
