Luis Bermudez

Luis Bermudez

Luis Bermudez / Moksha, M-10, 1986 / castable refractory / 32 x 13 x 9 in. (81.3 x 33 x 22.9 cm)

The artwork featured in Sobre La Vida was created between 1986 and 2014. It demonstrates Bermudez’s lifelong preoccupation with the interconnected nature of place, identity, as well as materiality. It also reveals the relationship between the physical and the spiritual. The title Sobre La Vida translates to “About Life.” The presentation celebrates the creative developments of a beloved cultural figure, who was an influential force in the art world. He touched the lives of artists within as well as  outside of LA throughout his career as an artist, educator, and curator.

Richard Diebenkorn

In the upstairs gallery, you will find works on paper by the American painter, draftsman, and printmaker Richard Diebenkorn (1922 – 1993). Dating from the 1950s, 1970s, and 1980s, the three groupings of artworks in this exhibition demonstrate the recurring formal preoccupations with structure, movement. It also reveals the perspective that define Diebenkorn’s endlessly powerful and mysterious oeuvre. In addition, these artworks illuminate the approaches and motifs that captured the artist’s attention at particular points in his career. This includes the meaningful employment of color, the translation of landscape into two-dimensional terms, and a fascination with spade and club forms. Intimate in scale and medium, this exhibition communicates the poetic sensitivities inherent to Diebenkorn’s work.
