THE 26TH ANNUAL LA ART SHOW The Most Comprehensive International Contemporary Art Show
in
America
Los Angeles has emerged as a global epicenter of art & culture, with a distinct, interwoven multi-cultural influence unique to the city. Diversity is our strength and art is most impactful when it includes or transcends all borders. As LA rises as the world-class destination for art, the LA Art Show continues to lead the way with innovative programming and one-of-a-kind experiences for an expanding collecting audience. LA Art Show is the unparalleled international art experience with over 80 galleries, museums, and non-profit arts organizations from around the world exhibiting painting, sculpture, works on paper, installation, photography, design, video and performance. All works presented by galleries are available for your purchasing pleasure. More than 180,000 square feet of exhibition space is committed to today’s prominent galleries. These domestic and international galleries, beyond their booths, curate special exhibits that are at the forefront of the burgeoning contemporary art movement.

MODERN + CO NTEMP OR ARY WELCOME TO THE 26th ANNUAL LA ART SHOW I am both honored and humbled to assume my new role as Producer/Director of the LA Art Show, and to reinvigorate the show while strengthening our city’s position as the epicenter of art and culture. In our 26-year history, the LA Art Show has never encountered a year with the uncertainties and complexities of these past months. That we have managed, yet again, to produce an in-person art fair in 2021 at the LA Convention Center - our home venue - is a testament to the dedication, passion, and tenacity of our team, our exhibitors, our sponsors, and our partners. Words cannot adequately express my heartfelt appreciation for the support of all the exhibitors in the show, many of whom had to make tremendous financial and personal sacrifices to participate. It has been especially challenging for our international exhibitors, grappling with travel restrictions imposed by both their home country and by ours. Yet, we have all prevailed as we welcome more than 80 exhibiting galleries and museums from North and South America, Asia and Europe. We’re delighted the LA Art Show is returning as a summer event, helping to re-energize the LA art scene after the long, quiet months of the pandemic. As the most comprehensive art fair on the West Coast, we have always presented one of the most diverse and engaging programs in the world. This year is no different. While my first year as Producer and Director may not have been the easiest, my commitment to hosting a spectacular and safe event remained unshaken. I am equally grateful to every member of our LA Art Show team, working tirelessly and graciously under pressure. Their optimism for what is possible, and their faith in my leadership, have been an inspiration, and I am thrilled to share the culmination of our collective hard work. Welcome to the 2021 edition of the LA Art Show!
Kassandra Voyagis Producer | Director LA Art Show

LA ART SHOW Gallerist Talks Presented by Citi
Citi, a proud sponsor of the 2021 LA ART SHOW, has partnered with the show to create the LA ART SHOW Gallerist Talks Presented by Citi, which will be broadcast around the world during the show weekend, July 29th - August 1st. This unique, unprecedented program will provide viewers with engaging in-depth looks into select exhibiting galleries through an immersive 3D virtual gallery experience.
Citi, committed to helping small businesses around the world, proposed the creation of the platform to the LA ART SHOW in April of 2020 so that galleries from other parts of the world, potentially unable to travel due to the extraordinary circumstances presented by the pandemic, could participate in the show and share the work of their represented artists in this interactive format to potential collectors and audiences everywhere.
8
During the show weekend Citi will host LIVE conversations about the incredible artworks in the virtual exhibitions, courtesy of artists from all parts of the world. The conversations will be livestreamed from Citi’s gallery space on the show floor, which will be curated with pieces from participating galleries. This discourse will be broadcast globally, and include Q&A with the gallery owners, curators and special guests. Citi will also share, for the first time, highlights from a fascinating, mid-century commissioned and created art and advertising campaign from their own collection.
See the next page for the schedule of livestream events at the LA Art Show 2021.

DIV E RS E art L A
DIVERSEartLA is a special programming section devoted to nurturing the creative energy of international collectors, artists, curators, museums and non-profits by connecting them directly with audiences in Los Angeles. The LA Art Show donates 50,000 square feet of exhibition space to participating organizations each year as our civic engagement, and the featured work is not for sale. Overall curation by Marisa Caichiolo with individual curators from institutions around the world.
DIV E RS E art L A The 2021 edition of DIVERSEartLA, curated by Marisa Caichiolo, will focus on the presence, contributions, research and documentation of women and non- binary artists at the forefront of work at the intersection of art, science and technology represented by guest museums, institutions and not-for-profit organizations. “Science, art and technology are human attempts to understand and describe the world around us. The subjects and methods have different traditions and the intended audiences are different, but i think the motivations and goals are fundamentally the same. I think one of the most primal and innate needs of humans is to understand the world around us, and then share that understanding,” said Caichiolo. In the field of digital art in the last fifteen years, many artists have been working on materializing the digital information and new media practices by audio or visual means (such as installation works, audiovisual and performances which include technology) in order to grasp the imagination of it; while other artists are aiming to present the concept of ‘signals’ from the perspective of synesthesia: they try to visualize sound signals with the aid of machinery and therefore transform the abstract geometric images into sounds through computer operations. This wave began in the 1920s, when many artists aimed to create timebased visual works. Although some of the works seemed to embody the technology and innovation, much of it actually originated from the most tangible form of reality, the artist’s surrounding natural environments. DIVERSEartLA will be an examination and a compilation of material, as well as an exhibition featuring the work of women and non-binary artists who have played a central role in the development of new media practices within art institutions and throughout history. We are also diving into a new period where we’ve had to deal with the breakdown of traditional relationships between the material and the immaterial. While the cryptographic tokens used to create nfts, are similar to cryptocurrencies such as bitcoin, the tokens in nfts aren’t fungible, or interchangeable. So, it’s impossible to exchange one nft for another, as one could do with currency. It’s often equated to an autograph, but on a digital file. An nft not only tracks the creator of the artwork, but also the ownership and market value. Because it is securely stored in the blockchain, an nft is unique and non-interchangeable. Photographs, videos, gifs, audio, and any digital file can be represented as an NFT.

Dignidad is an art installation at The National Archive of Chile based on secret telephone documents about Colonia Dignidad. Found in 2012 by the ex-settler and activist, Winfried Hempel, the audios reveal for the first time to the public conversations between Paul Schäfer and other Nazi agents in 1978. Through sculpture, sound, performance, text, and a selection of historical archives, the installation reveals a complex system of codes and transcontinental actions that culminated in crimes against minors and opponents of the Chilean civic-military dictatorship (1973-1990).

DATA | ergo sum | RELOADED is an interactive Art installation that visualizes the capability of viewing machines using Artificial Intelligence to extract data by a simple observation of visitors, created by artist Ana Marcos. Ana Marcos is a graduate in Fine Arts from Madrid University and Industrial Engineer from the Polytechnic University of Madrid. As a multidisciplinary artist, she combines different art forms like interactive installations, video, and photography, working on new ways of experimentation in the field of arts. She is the leader and co-founder of 3Dinteractive, a group of engineers and artists that seeks, through research, a deeper understanding of the relationship among art- science-technology and the public. All technology produces a change in our way of living and understanding reality. Today, we have at our disposal complex, innovative technological environments, works based on experimentation and studies of Universities from all over the world and all that knowledge is available on the network to be shared not only by technologists, but also by artists. It is clear the momentum and relevance of that technology in general, and Artificial Intelligence in particular, is gaining in our society and, as an artist, she believes that artistic work has the obligation to explore and experiment in the field of AI. Art always makes its way into thought and therefore also into technology, and can provide other perspectives to the most innovative developments. Whether AI it is a tool or a discipline, it is – and will be – a topic of work for artists. Hopefully, art will also be able to influence the developments in AI.

T H E SYM P H O N Y O F N OW by
Angie Bonino
The San Marcos Museum of Art (MASM) from Lima, Perú will bring a new media project of augmented reality by Peruvian artist Angie Bonino, titled “THE SYMPHONY OF NOW, which consists of a video installation, and interactive sound installation focusing on the Andean techno decolonial shamanism. The artist, Angie Bonino, was born in Lima (Peru), in 1974, and she has continuously travelled all over the world – she even lived and worked in Barcelona, Spain for eleven years. It should come as no surprise then that the main medium of her artistic proposals is precisely the motion pictures, specifically video and video installations. However, this does not mean that they are her only forms of expression. Angie Bonino is an artist of our time in all senses, a multimedia artist focusing on the crossover of art and technology. After all, in addition to video, her works are also expressed in animation, digital techniques, graphic prints, drawings, paintings and sculptures. Yet, through all of this plurality of media, there remains at all times the same predominant aesthetic intention: to question the image. In Angie Bonino’s work, this questioning of the image through artworks always has a moral and political intent. Her goal is to reveal, in all the hyper-mediatic image production and transmission networks, the dissemination of the invisible, occult, power spheres and systems which determine the configuration of what she calls the image world: “This world in which we live today, which has become an engulfing universal screen that traps and subjects our eyes, but that does not let us see. Because of their extreme, extraordinarily intense visibility – repetitive, hypnotizing, alienating – the power networks and their objectives of domination become invisible. And thus, unnoticed, their domination becomes inscrutable and fully irreversible.” This is what Angie Bonino tries to get us to see in her works.

Carmen Argote
and
Zeynep Abes
Curated by Chon Noriega, UCLA Chicano Studies Research Center will present a special project titled Immersive Distancing by artists Carmen Argote and Zeynep Abes. This exhibition will examine recent media art produced during the Covid-19 pandemic by L.A.-based artists Carmen Argote (Mexico, b. 1981) and Zeynep Abes (Turkey, b. 1993). Zeynep Abes now lives and works in Los Angeles. These artists address our ongoing cultural and political moment in relation to the body, memory, archival traces, and the urban landscape. Immigration – as both personal experience and sociopolitical reality – informs their larger body of work. These artists have previously worked in installation and sculpture, drawing heavily on family artifacts and archives as well as explorations of architectural space. Here, they approach media as a visualizing technology that brings their site-based works into an immersive narrative, while they also engage, adapt, and challenge the abstraction inherent in science – but especially digital science. The production, formal characteristic, and content of these media works were directly impacted by Covid-19 restrictions, moving each artist to develop remote modes of working that blurred the line between production and post-production. Both artists drew upon multiple digital sources: video, photography, and audio recordings. In Last Light, Argote uses the sights and sounds of her walks across L.A. during the pandemic as the basis for a meditation on dis-ease and destruction. She turns to the foundation for all science – measurement – proposing to measure her body in relation to the scale of the city and the world, but uses the foundation for all art – the hand – as the

AG U A by
Luciana Abait
Now Art LA and Building Bridges Art Exchange have joined together as local non profit organizations to present the work Agua by artist Luciana Abait, a video projection inspired by the flood-myth motif that occurs in many cultures in which water acts a healing and rebirth tool, often referencing ideas of creation, purification and sustaining life. Agua offers the public a space, an oasis, for healing and understanding. The work is site specific and architecturally integrated to foster a poetic awareness of water as a sacred resource for humanity while creating a moment of reflection for those who attend. Agua is a multichannel artwork combining videos of water gathered through years from nature exploration around the globe. The shifting color hues seen throughout express various states of mind and emotion, harmonizing the interactive experience physically with an internal one. Agua as exhibited in downtown Los Angeles supports a call to action and underlines the importance of water as a key component to our future survival. I intend for this work to participate in opening awareness and actions surrounding environmental initiatives with depth, beauty, grace and wonder.

FEATURED EXHIBITIONS
PERFORMANCE: UN/SEEN by
Tiffany Trenda
Artist Tiffany Trenda presents Un/Seen, a live performance within an immersive experience using volumetric capture. It transforms in realtime depending upon the actions of the public. With new immersive experiences, we become disembodied. That is, we are physically in one space while our eyes and thoughts are experiencing another world simultaneously. Our bodies become dissociated as we shift between the simulated and the real. Furthermore, we are not immediately within the presence of another. Our presence is mediated and transported into another space that doesn’t actually exist. We are in essence, seen and unseen. These new applications also blur the role of the user and creator by allowing both parties to change the experience. That is, the spectator is no longer a witness but a collaborator. Also, all parties are represented as avatars and this opens a narrative of, “who is this?” and “what will happen?” Our roles as players in these games are ambiguous, a perfect reflection of our time with the uncertainty of our future.

HACER
Saving the planet, and documenting change in our environment (Past – Present – Future). One of the most powerful things about art is that it brings people together, and transforms the way we communicate. The goal of DIVERSEartLA 2022 is to view this sector of art within the show through ecological glasses: how the environment is represented in art installations and objects, and also how humans’ place in the world is depicted. This topic is at the heart of a growing number of art narratives, including exhibitions built with high-tech innovations, designed to inspire artistic appreciation and the desire to respond to environmental challenges, reinforcing the value of translating environmental advocacy into art. These installations represent our present day and the looming impact we will all face as the planet warms. DIVERSEartLA 2022 will encourage visitors to confront the complex challenges of our global climate crisis and imagine potential solutions.

Michael Loew
In the late 1920s Michael Loew was enrolled at the Art Student’s League and later was in France where he studied with Fernand Leger. Loew was close and longtime friends with Willem de Kooning who influenced his work. After Pearl Harbor, Loew joined the Navy and served as the battalion artist for the “Seabees” in the Pacific. His watercolors were drawn largely from his Navy work on Tinian Island. When he returned home in 1946, his painting moved quickly toward Abstraction. It was the 1950s that brought the full development of his mature style. He studied with Hans Hoffman and cultivated his sensibility for color effects. He used the grid-structure of Piet Mondrian as a base to experiment with possibilities of palette and to focus on the subtle transitions of tone or harmony of color relationships. He changed subjects into unique patterns of rectangles or color. As a major proponent of Abstract Expressionism and later Color Field painting, Loew produced many colorful examples, such as Blue Edge and Yellow on Yellow. Over the course of his life, Loew’s work was exhibited extensively in galleries and museums including: The Guggenheim and The Whitney in NY, the Dallas Museum of Art and The Philadelphia Museum of Art.

A B STRA C T IN NATU RE by
Paik Gannomi
Korean-American abstract painter Paik Gannomi in his terse five flowing strokes produced Sonaggi (Rainstorm) in 1973, New York. Abstaining from being elaborate or superfluous in expressing a natural phenomenon, Rainstorm, he stated through bare minimum of lines and colors. In his use of line, he shares commonality with the Korean form of calligraphy art Seoye, in which a force of stroke must come alive with an inherent movement and rhythm. Artist Gannomi’s strokes add profound dynamism by characteristic embodiment of deep red within black. Ensuing space created by the lines is another trademark of his works influenced from Korean traditional art. His art can be categorized as an abstract expressionism in line with Franz Klein and Jackson Pollack. Most of Paik Gannomi’s work was not consciously created with a title in mind, rather a perfunctory impression emerged from the lines and spaces. While his contemporaries back in Korea found fascination with the monochrome movement in 1970’s, he held his own forte with the unique style of aquamarine background overlayed with the flowing red on black lines. The epitome of his works came to fruition when he was awarded the Prix d’Audonne for “Paysage de Seine” at Grand Palais, Paris 1981. Previously, in 1980, he received the Mayor’s award at Palais Vincennes, Paris for “l’Automne” and “Sainte Face.”

Zadora-Gerlof pays homage to M.C. Escher in this mind-boggling work of stainless steel. The piece was inspired by the Dutch artist’s 1952 Gravitation, which explored the impossibility of multiple sources of gravity working together on a single object. Escher manifested this theory through twelve turtles who use the star as a common shell. Represented in six colored pairs – red, orange, yellow, purple, green and blue – each turtle rests directly opposite its counterpart. Though Escher’s creation is a physical impossibility, he presented it in a visually credible and logical way. Zadora makes the genius of Escher’s creation a reality through precisely cut pieces of stainless steel and polymer. At first glance, it appears to be a nonsensical jumble of turtle heads and limbs, though a closer inspection reveals the inherent symmetry and harmony of the design.

Lee Lee Nam (b.1969) creates amalgamations of today’s high-tech environment and traditional culture. With exceptional finesse, he creates mesmerising digital and video works that juxtapose European old master paintings and traditional Asian art with modern day imagery. The artworks are overlaid and interwoven like a palimpsest, creating an image as fictitious as dreams overlapping reality.

LIMINA L: MA RTIA N SUN by
F é l i c i e d ’E s t i e n n e d ’O r v e s
Mixing light, sculpture and new technologies, the work of Félicie d’Estienne d’Orves questions the process of vision and deconstructs our gaze. Her installations use a phenomenological approach to reality, they underscore the perception of time as a continuum. From audiovisual performance to land art, her research has focused on astrophysical space and natural light cycles. The visual artist works with outerspace landscapes through a ‘tele-vision’ process, where depth of field is being augmented by telescopes, rovers and astrophysical modelling. Liminal: Martian Sun is a show that we decided to construct around the focused oeuvre of works by Félicie that intersects through different dimensions, time and space. Hovering between opposites, the artist’s works challenge the places of intervals like life and death, light and dark, near and far, reality and the spiritual among many others, driving an important part of her practice and the core of our exhibition, hence our title. Intertwining science and the intangible qualities of life and its philosophies, Félicie questions, shakes and deep dives into facts about the universe, translating them into mesmerizing art installations that are so astonishingly intellectual, complex and beautiful.
