MADE IN L.A. 2016: A, THE, THOUGH, ONLY

Exhibition, Hammer Museum, Los Angeles, USA.


Until August 28, 2016
The third iteration of the Hammer’s biennial exhibition continues to highlight the practices of artists working throughout Los Angeles and the surrounding areas.
As part of an ongoing series, it addresses L.A. as a centre of activity inseparable from the global network of art production and reveals how artists move fluidly between contexts and respond to their local conditions. Subtitled by the minimalist poet and writer Aram Saroyan, the presentation only extends to such disciplines as dance, fashion, literature, music, lm, and performance. Rather than a unifying regional aesthetic, sensibility, or identity historically associated with Los Angeles, it focuses on artists from different disciplinary backgrounds.
