Don’t forget to check our Upcoming Events Page….there are still some FREE concerts happening here in LA.
Today the Pick of the Week takes place from 3:00 pm to 5:00 pm at LA Artcore’s other location in Little Tokyo. The POW features artist Julienne Johnson in a group show entitled “The Franklyn Liegel Memorial Exhibition .”
But starting a bit earlier… LA Artcore (The Brewery Annex) celebrates the work of three abstract artists, Danilo Giannoni, Amber Maida, and Yasunari Nakagomi.
D
anilo Giannoni is an Italian artist whose life regularly places him in Turkey. One day he missed his flight, and wandering around he discovered by chance an ancient paint technique called ‘Ebru.’
Amber Maida creates mixed media paintings that combine surface technique, modeling and other painting methods to create rich, textural surfaces.
Yasunari Nakagomi is a Tokyo-based artist who produces saturated, ethereal and earthy landscapes, employing the powerful technique of weighted composition and horizontal brushwork that creates something along the lines of a horizon line.
