from the La Luz de Jesus Gallery website:

"Beyond Eden will also feature an 'Artist Village' in the courtyard outside of the LAMAG in the beautiful confines of the Barnsdall Art Park. The 'Artist Village' will feature an array of live painters curated by the featured galleries alongside installations, live screen printing and performance art.

Founded in 1951, the Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery is a historic 10,000 square foot facility located on the sprawling grounds of Olive Hill in the Barnsdall Art Park. The park overlooks the city of Los Angeles and is also home to the famous Frank Lloyd Wright Hollyhock House and Arts Complex. Under the Department of Cultural Affairs, the LAMAG is the premier city-run gallery that focuses on contemporary art, particularly the work of living Southern California artists.

I also grabbed this photo. You can see my two hand paintings right between the two doorways in the main room. Great spot for visibility.

The Beyond Eden Art Fair

The Beyond Eden Art Fair is a multi-gallery event celebrating the new contemporary art scene in Los Angeles. The public is invited to attend this special event and admission is free. After the success of last year's East of Eden exhibition which drew over 3,000 people, the organizers have decided to branch out the scope of the fair and expand the focus geographically to include galleries from all across Los Angeles. The goal of Beyond Eden is to celebrate the new contemporary movement that has been building momentum and a patron base in Los Angeles for the past several decades and is finally starting to receive mainstream recognition from major institutions and publications the world over. Organizers are partnering with some of Los Angeles' leading cultural and community organizations to help broaden the scope of the event. A percentage of the event's sales also will be donated to MOCA on behalf of the MOCA Contemporaries. The event organizers forecast this year's event to be even larger and more well received and are expecting upwards of 5,000 people to pass through over the weekend of October 9th, 10th and 11th, with an opening night celebration planned for Saturday, October 10th.

Beyond Eden will showcase the works of over 15 galleries, and will be held inside the beautiful confines of the historic Los Angeles Municipal Art Gallery. Billy Shire Fine Arts and La Luz De Jesus will be showcasing the art of Carrie Ann Baade, Lou Beach, Cathie Bleck, Dave Cooper, Bryan Cunningham, Jessica Dalva, Daniel Martin Diaz, Bob Dob, Myron Conan Dyal, PJ Fidler, Don Fritz, Mark Gleason, Scott Holloway, Max Grundy, Jessica Joslin, Caia Koopman, Chris Mars, Elizabeth McGrath, Matjames Metson, Lyle Motley, Nathan Ota, Jenn Porreca, Gail Potocki, John Puglisi, Kim Scott, Owen Smith, Magda Trzaski and Christopher Ulrich with new, never-before-seen works from Tony Fitzpatrick, Daniel Peacock, Chris Roberts-Antieau, Krystopher Sapp, Mark Todd and Esther Pearl Watson.

Beyond Eden will also feature an 'Artist Village' in the courtyard outside of the LAMAG in the beautiful confines of the Barnsdall Art Park. The 'Artist Village' will feature an array of live painters curated by the featured galleries alongside installations, live screen printing and performance art.
