Littletopia was conceived by Red Truck Gallery founder Noah Antieau and Juxtapoz Magazine co-founder Greg Escalante as a showcase of the best and brightest from the lowbrow and pop art movements, which originated here in Los Angeles. This year, the LA Art Show is proud to announce that Littletopia will be curated by Red Truck Gallery and Caro Buermann of Corey Helford Gallery. Fresh off their award for Outdoor Sculpture at the 2018 Lucca Biennale, cardboard art duo Dosshaus will be creating this year’s Littletopia archway.
