TWO ICONIC KENT TWITCHELL MURALS BACK ON PUBLIC VIEW Kent Twitchell's murals are among the most celebrated public art pieces in the world. His images, often figures of artists of various genres, are noted for their extreme realism and for their sheer size. Two of Twitchell's most popular images, until recently considered lost, have made reappearances thanks to the painstaking work of the artist and thanks to new host venues. The "Freeway Lady," painted in 1974 on the Angeles Prince Hotel next to the Hollywood Freeway, fascinated commuters and tourists with its huge portrait of actress Lillian Bronson. The image spanned the chasm between the personal and the universal, with a vibrant and intricate afghan flowing from a grandmotherly image off into a sky highlighted by a full moon. After 12 years on the hotel, the mural was painted over by a billboard company. Twitchell began restoration work, but taggers destroyed the image. However, on April 14, the ribbon was cut on a re-creation of The Freeway Lady at Los Angeles Valley College. The work was commissioned six years ago by the LAVC Public Art Committee. Students assisted Twitchell with the painting effort. At the ribbon-cutting ceremony, Los Angeles Community College District Chancellor, Dr. Francisco Rodriguez, said that "Art is public spaces has the potential to create community." Rodriguez said that The Freeway Lady will create conversation. "Who is that?" "What does it mean?" "How far does that afghan go?" "I realize now this is where she was destined to be in 1974 when I first painted her," Twitchell said at the ribbon-cutting. Meanwhile, LAM Gallery is hosting a large exhibit of Twitchell works, “Kent Twitchell: The Man Who Paints Giants." A centerpiece of the LAM show is a new mural, a huge portrait of artist Ed Ruscha. Twitchell painted the original version of the 70-foot tall Ruscha mural over a space of nine years beginning in the late 70s. It was a familiar site in Downtown Los Angeles until 2006 when, to Twitchell and everyone else's surprise, the mural was removed during a building renovation. The LAM exhibit focuses on the recreation of the image, which will be installed on the American Hotel in the Arts District this summer. The exhibit offers insight into how Twitchell creates his massive images. It includes a section of the new mural, as well as preparatory studies. There is also a sizable selection of photographs and drawings of previous Twitchell works. "Kent has not had a gallery show to this extent, fully focused on him and his mural work,” says gallery founder Winnie Lam, “ and he certainly deserves it.”

FISH OUT OF WATER When artist Stuart Rapeport was invited to participate in the Maloof Foundation Sculpture in the Garden 2016 show, his fish undertook the journey from Rapeport's Highland Park studio to the Maloof Discovery Garden in Alta Loma. It was a long journey--perhaps longer than the fish anticipated--and it was fraught with perils. Would they make it to the opening reception? They were fish out of water. (Update: the fish made it. They seem happy, and will be on display in the garden through October. www.malooffoundation.org) All images by Stuart Rapeport.

THE WHOLE DISH Nothing says “spring” like fresh green garlic at the farmer’s market. I grabbed a bunch the other day, and before I could put it into my bag this idea to make fresh raw almond cheese with green garlic popped into my head. This is a fresh, quick cheese that slightly resembles the consistency of a ricotta, and offers a nice, nutritious, dairy-free creaminess. The green garlic made it heavenly. You can use it on a sandwich with vine tomatoes, as an hors d’oeuvre filling or topping- as pictured, or try it in layers of lasagna. Enjoy!

Fresh Almond Cheese with Green Garlic 1 1/4 cup raw almonds, soaked in filtered water for at least 2 hours or overnight 2 tbsp. fresh lemon juice 3 tbsp. olive oil 1 1/4 tsp. salt 2/3 cup water 1 tbsp. nutritional yeast 1/4-1/2 cup sliced green garlic (depending on how strong you want it to taste) Drain the almonds, and remove the skin from each almond by hand. This makes the cheese more white and gives it a more cheese-like appearance. But you can also leave the skins for a more textured look and taste. Place the peeled almonds and all the remaining ingredients except for the garlic greens in a food processor. Process the mixture for at least 2 minutes. Check for smoothness. If you can recognize pieces of almond, it isn’t smooth enough. Continue processing if needed. This could take a while and it may seem like you are processing too much, but it’s okay. Once you reach the consistency you like, add the garlic greens and process until the greens are mixed in and chopped, but still large enough to give some green speckled color to the cheese. Give it a final taste and adjust ingredients where needed. I like it when it gets to the consistency of ricotta cheese. They key is to get it past tasting like ground up almonds. Serve as desired. For this particular photo, I sliced up 2 medium zucchini, tossed in olive oil and seasoning, and grilled both sides. They made a great hors d’oeuvre base with the cheese on top.

“I AIN’T GONNA SIT AND LET THE WORLD GO BY”

Photo Exhibition by Aydinaneth Ortiz At Avenue 50 Studio’s Satellite Gallery at the M.A.N Insurance Co. By Tatiana Delfina Preciado Through her photography, Aydinaneth Ortiz captures her community, her culture, and her identity. In recent years, Ortiz has used her art as a form of expression and healing. The death of her brother, Geovany Ortiz, by the hands of her other brother, Israel Ortiz, who suffers schizophrenia, has dominated her work for the last three years. In her photographic series called “California Mental State Hospital," Ortiz captured images of the abandoned mental institution in California after visiting it to receive a better understanding of the mental health system. The purpose of this was to show the public the lack of funding and help that is offered to those who suffer from mental illnesses. In her book, La Condición de la Familia, Ortiz shares her story of what happened to her family, before and after the incident, through images of her family members, especially her two brothers. I had the pleasure of meeting with Ortiz and conducted an interview with the artist. TDP: Let's first start with, who are you? Ortiz: I am a female photographer and I am an artist. I was born and raised in Long Beach, California. I come from a poor socially economic background. I am trying to express myself through my art, and see if I can connect with somebody through my art in order to share my experience with others. I am a student, and I am going to Cal Arts in the fall. TDP: When did you become a photographer? Ortiz: I started taking photographs when I was young, never for the intention of it being professional. I’ve always liked the camera and always liked taking snapshots of family events and trips. It wasn’t until I took photography in my community college that I really enjoyed the medium and decided to take it on professionally, or just more seriously. I’ve loved, and still love, the dark room. The dark room is what really made me want to continue as a photographer because I love that experience. Once I realized how well I was doing in my photography class, I put that much effort in my other classes. I actually feel like it saved me because it helped me find what I wanted to do on my path in life. TDP: Can you talk about your book with me? Ortiz: One of the reasons why I liked the dark room was because it was my oasis from the drama happening in my home. My brother was diagnosed with schizophrenia when he was seventeen so at the time I was losing myself in the medium. When the incident happened between my brothers, it was hard to deal with. I was at UCLA at the time where I took my photography class with Catherine Opie. My brother died during the summer, but I had to go back to school. Opie told us we’re having a documentary class and I just thought, I have to do this, simply for myself because I couldn’t stop thinking about it. I did it for my final and I was very proud of it. I did it for myself because it was like art therapy and I do feel like it helped me mourn and deal with what was happening. I don’t feel in my heart that my brother Israel intentionally killed my brother, he just panicked. That’s why on the cover of my book it says that it is dedicated to both of my brothers because the incident both impacted them deeply, and impacted the rest of us. It’s the best way of telling my story and the best way of saying it is through a book because I can guide the narrative the way I want people to see it. TDP: So do you see art as a form of healing? Ortiz: Definitely, I do find art as a form of healing. I think it has helped me a lot in different ways. I am not only a photographer I am a print maker, and that is another process I enjoy. So dealing with mental health is what made me embark on this other project because when my brother was released, he had no help. It was like “here, you deal with him.” And I felt like, why weren’t we getting any help, we need to get this guy, and hold him, and get him some psych help, but nobody offered that. So I visited a 162-acre mental institution, but 80% of it is abandoned due to lack of funding. They only manicure the lawns. They don’t have the funding to take in more people and from what I was told the occupancy is more inmates serving time versus other people. I understand they need the help too and I agree because my brother has been through difficult situations because he also has a drug problem where he uses street drugs to medicate. He has gotten into trouble with the law before, and he has gotten arrested for minor things, but even then he wasn’t receiving any help, even when he was incarcerated he wasn’t getting his right medicine. Many times they wouldn’t even incarcerate him, which doesn’t help a person either. So I understand why they take more severe cases, but I feel like people who aren’t incarcerated need this help too but it isn’t available for them. TDP: How does your family feel about your photography? Ortiz: Well, they are proud of it and me because they do see that it has helped me so in return they are proud because they love me. At first, they did have trouble because it would make them sad because they would remember, but they realized that it has helped me. Ortiz is a strong, beautiful woman whose photos, although capturing a harsh reality, are used not only to help her heal from the wounds but also connect with others who have gone through similar situations. Ortiz’s exhibition, “I Ain’t Gonna Sit and Let The World Go By” is on exhibit at the M.A.N. Insurance Company through May 7, 2016. 1270 North Avenue 50. Tatiana Delfina Preciado is a third generation Mexican-American woman born and raised in Northeastern Los Angeles, specifically Highland Park and Glassell Park. She is a freshman at California State University, Northridge where she is working towards a Bachelors of Art degree in Art. She is involved in community art programs around Los Angeles such as Self-Help Graphics, the Eagle Rock Music Festival, and is currently interning at Avenue 50 Studio.

Dish of the Month

Larisa Code Note: Create happiness, one delicious bite at a time. Featured Restaurant: Bar Ama 118 W. 4th Street Los Angeles Featured Dish: Queso This is Tex-Mex food, and it’s Queso….yum… Sorta like a Superbowl commercial for Cheez Whiz dip (but with more love and in a prettier dish), it is a melted orange cheese, and you can add things like chorizo (highly recommend) or pork belly (not as good). It comes with freshly fried restaurant style tortilla chips, and it is delicious. Enjoy it with one of their zillions of tequila or mezcal cocktails. All are made with such care, you cannot go wrong. The staff is friendly and full of knowledge, ready for your questions and willing to help you pick the perfect beverage. As far as parking goes, this is Downtown LA, so, take the subway. Pershing Square is your stop. If you are a party of 2 or under, don’t plan on having much room for a meal. The queso is a meal and a half my friend. Enjoy!

Indigenous Fine Art Market “POPUP” Show at Lummis Home During Museums of the Arroyo (MOTA) Day May 15

OVER 20 RENOWNED ARTISTS PRESENT WORK AT A CELEBRATION OF NATIVE ART AND THE CULTURES THAT INSPIRE IT Explore the diversity of artistic talent at the first-ever Los Angeles PopUp Indigenous Fine Art Market taking place as a free special event at the Lummis Home and Gardens during Museums of the Arroyo (MOTA) Day on Saturday May 15, 2016 from noon to 5 p.m. The popup market will be set up on the verdant garden grounds of the Lummis Home and will feature the work of over 20 Native American artists with work ranging from the traditional to contemporary styles. The artists will be present to share their work, from sculptors to photographers, and talk about their work with visitors. This special event is being produced by the national nonprofit organization IFAM (Indigenous Fine Art Movement) as part of the MOTA Day activities at the historic Lummis Home, which is owned and operated by the Los Angeles Recreation and Parks Department. Friends of the Southwest Museum is the sponsor for IFAM’s first Los Angeles Pop-Up market. “IFAM is excited to bring a ‘pop-up’ version of our flagship Santa Fe indigenous arts marketplace to Los Angeles and specifically the Lummis home. It’s so fitting to host this group of traditional and contemporary artists on the grounds of Charles Fletcher Lummis’ home. Lummis’ legacy of being a national advocate for the people and cultures of our nation’s Indigenous People is still compelling today,” said John Torrez Nez, President, IFAM. “We are delighted to work with the Los Angeles arts and culture community, especially with the presenting sponsorship of the Friends of the Southwest Museum, who see the value of bringing a traditional and contemporary indigenous art market to the Arroyo region.” In addition to the indigenous fine art marketplace, visitors will also enjoy self-guided tours of the Lummis Home and Gardens, and there will be children’s activities to round out the day of free fun during MOTA Day. Lummis home is located at 200 E. Avenue 43 in Highland Park. www.indigefam.org www.MuseumsOfTheArroyo.com

The photograhy of Peggy Fontenot will be featured at MOTA Day.

LOVE LETTER TO THE EAT ART OPEN MIC By Jen Hitchcock

This first Friday of May the EAT ART Open Mic is celebrating its two-year anniversary. Book Show has hosted this evening for almost as long as Book Show has existed. It is as much a part of my space as the books are, and I can’t imagine life without it. The event is a direct reflection of its indomitable host, Sabrina Dropkick. She is funny, brash, creative, brave and one of the most sensitive, expressive and caring people I know. True to who she is, she makes each month’s open mic unique and chock full of the unexpected. Some nights we are raucous and rowdy with sex toys being raffled off, dollar bills thrown in the air and caught in the mouth and bearded drag queens doing hula dances. Other nights the vibe is like a much needed hug--mellow, introspective and full of “feelz” (as Sabrina would say). The one thing you can walk in the door and expect every time is that the environment will be supportive, and the stage is open to everyone. It truly is an open mic. I’m not sure what the magic is that happens, but rarely do the participants just come in, do their thing and leave—something I see happen at a lot of other open mics. EAT ART fosters a creative, vibrant, inclusive, safe space where the whole room essentially becomes a stage for expression and the audience is open to whatever you have to give. Even though the main focus is words, Sabrina opens up the mic to any and all means of expression. We had someone get up and lead the whole room in a guided mediation. We had another person get up and just talk about how she decided to stop shaving her body hair, which lead to a spirited discussion amongst everyone there about everything from eyebrow plucking to pubic hair. This level of comfort and the feeling that you are in a safe environment to unabashedly be yourself and share your story is exactly what my store and space is about, and I am grateful to Sabrina for making it happen. Of course I can’t finish this love letter without mentioning one of my most favorite things about the EAT ART Open Mic. Our hodge-podge family of regulars. Many of them had never read or performed publicly in their lives until the EAT ART Open Mic. Now they come in and tell me about how they are reading at other open mics, writing more and even self-publishing their own books and fanzines. I look forward to this month’s open mic being the best one yet. The EAT ART Open Mic happens every first Friday of the month at Book Show, 5503 N. Figueroa St. Sign ups are from 8:00 – 8:30pm and the show starts at 8:30pm.

Mount Washington resident Pat Griffith passed away suddenly in April. Pat was an art collector and a frequent visitor to area galleries. She appreciated local Northeast L.A. artists and the importance of supporting them. She was also a fixture at community events--usually having gotten there on her bicycle. Her issues included, but were not limited to, early childhood education, active transportation, the rights of women, and the enjoyment and protection of nature. It is hard to imagine a community meeting without Pat in attendance. Pat is survived by partner Scott Burleigh, daughter Geneva Burleigh, and son-in-law Jeremy Kerr--as well as thousands of Northeast L.A. residents. (photo: Martha Benedict)

“THE SANITY CLAUSE”

By Jeremy Kaplan & Flo Dog READ Books of Eagle Rock

The Patron I’ll tell you what. When that gangly whippersnapper took to laughing at the political perspective of yours truly, it took all the self-control I could muster not to brain the giggling punk with one of my crutches. I’ll tell you what else. I got no use for self-control. They expect me to be jolly. They look at my size, the long white beard, and they think I’m gonna’ hand ‘em a damn Christmas gift or something. If my crutches had been long enough to reach across that damn counter, I’d a given that chuckling bastard a gift alright. Nearly forgot why I’d walked in there the first place. Well yuh don’t see many bookstores nowadays. People don’t read anymore. It’s part of this god-damn global conspiracy to dumb us down, all these internet sons-a-bitches and what have you taking over the market, and I didn’t mind telling him so at the get go. Him being the aforementioned gangly whippersnapper whose bookstore I’d just entered. Sure, he agreed, our economy’s designed for corporate takeovers. His words. Damn straight, said I. Gettin’ to the point where the government’s takin’ all the jobs away from the little guy. Leave the rest of us with nothing but a pair of pee-stained undies and a car to sleep in. My words. “Income inequality’s pretty fucked up,” he said. “Problem is that a lot of people running our government are intent on giving the government away to corporations & billionaires that pay for their campaigns.” “Fucked-up don’t even begin…” I almost poked a whole in his ceiling with my crutch. “I’m living in mah damn car!” “That sucks,” he said, taking a peek-a-boo at his ceiling above me. “Anyhow. Makes for an interesting election year, huh?” “Time for a damn revolution, young fella,” I began. “That’s why…” The Proprietor “… my man is Donald Trump!” That’s what he shouted I shit you not, all the while abusing my ceiling with his unwieldy crutch. I’m not sure that I actually laughed aloud, but I couldn’t restrain the silly grin that took over the southern hemisphere of my face. I mean here I got this three-hundredpound self-professed hobo looking like St. Nick forty years after a dozen harrowing tours of duty in Vietnam, he’s griping righteously about The Man and Revolution god bless him, and this is what he comes up with? Donald? Maybe I, like, guffawed. “What’s so damn funny? Trump’s gonna take on all those damn bastards. Got a problem with that?” “Trump is all those damn bastards.” I was glad that he didn’t have longer arms— or a monkey in his pocket— because that crutch he was aiming at me was maybe ten inches short of a sloppy embalmment, and this guy who’d entered the store a few minutes ago looking for a book to read was now talking like Popeye moments before clouting Bluto. “Wipe that grin off yur face I will. Man says what a man says and he don’t say no more. Ar.” I wanted to talk to him. How could we both see the same rigged system yet come to such antithetical conclusions? Must be some kind of misapprehension of facts and whatnot. “So why would a billionaire with a history of scamming people have any interest in altering an economic system that favors him?” “Well he doesn’t need any of our money for one thing. He’s got enough of his own damn it! And he’s gonna kick out the Mexicans! And stick it to the Chinese! Tell ‘um where they can take their stinkin’ debt! The Chinese damn it! Over in China!” He waved a crutch to and fro, told me I’m a nice guy but a “gangly whippersnapper” nonetheless, and groused about the damn Mexican kid that screwed up his order at Burger King last week. So I was about done discussing. No misapprehending here. Where I saw well-endowed people affecting policy to further enhance their multi-billion endowments, he saw a swarthy teenager fucking up his whopper and making $10 bucks an hour to boot. Thankfully, before he had the chance to describe any depravity he’d been exposed to at the bronzed hands of Panda Express, Florence interceded. The Pet Believe you me there’s not a dilemma in this world that cannot be solved by sniffing a biped’s butt. Take this giant biped for instance with his jolly facial hair and un-jolly disposition, all set on flaying my biped with the succor of his long, metallic arms whilst my biped sat dumbly contemplating said giant with an unaccountably entertained grin plastered on his relatively hairless countenance. “What is so amusing about being flayed?” I wanted to bark at him. But I’m a problem solver, not a philosopher, and thus engaged myself immediately in the pragmatic defusing of a tense situation. The hairy white giant peered over his immense shoulder. “Hey. What’s… what are you doing down there? What’s… you a boy or a girl?” Subsequent to a long, contemplative pause, my biped ventured: “Girl?” “Hmm. Good girl,” muttered the crazy biped, stroking my back with the rubbery end of his arm. “What kinda dog is she?” My biped shrugged. “A girl one? I actually know her name… gimme a second… Florence!” “Well Florence,” crooned the somewhat mollified biped. “Aren’t you a good girl?” I am? He leaned forward on his freakishly long arms and continued: “You want Donald Trump to be America’s leader, donchoo girl?” I do? “You don’t want to have to habla espanol every time you order a Whopper, now do you?” I don’t? Then he fixed my biped with a most defiant countenance and shouted: “In America, everybody gets to vote!” “To paraphrase that great American political philosopher, Chico Marx,” nodded my biped in agreement, “when it comes to voting, there ain’t no Sanity Clause.”

TEMPTRESS By Linda Kaye

A lone White flower peaks out through a flock of purple bougainvillea enticing the viewer to come hither to take a closer look she smells it sweetly as the dew on her upper lip begins to drip after her shower that washed away the remembrances of lust making the night before She tugs at a hedonistic thought when she sees the scratches on her upper thigh and replays the beginning of the encounter It began after sunset walking on York Boulevard looking to capture an audience for a twilight dance a Saturday night rendezvous she sees an artist casually painting street art on various walls down an alleyway she asks for a light for her blunt the artist peers above his glasses as he graciously hits her up his hand gently touching her’s an instant embrace follows the kiss is deep with passion a harmony of balance a richness of heat that rises to form a sensual explosion that cloisters the moment in time frozen with sexual desire a forbidden wall is broken she opens her eyes and ponders as she always does every time this scenario happens Where will this lead?
