MAS Attack Returns to TAM Dec 13th!

MAS Attack Returns to the Torrance Art Museum (TAM) – Friday, December 13th, 6-9pm
Calling all artists in SoCal—join us for a pop-up exhibition of solidarity!

After a challenging and divisive period, many artists are uncertain about the future. But the future starts now—and we are stronger together. Join us for the return of the Mutual Appreciation Society event—MAS Attack! This one-night-only exhibition invites all artists to share work that reflects these turbulent times, whether political, emotional, or personal. Art that speaks to where we are, and where we are headed. This is an opportunity to show that community counts, and that we are not alone.

How to Participate
No registration or application is required! Artists are invited to drop off their work at TAM from Tuesday, December 10th to Friday, December 13th, 10am-4pm. The opening reception will be Friday, December 13th, 6-9pm. At 9pm, artists can take their work home with them.

What’s at stake?
With recent tensions and the aftermath of a divisive election, many artists are wondering what comes next. We need to reinforce our sense of community—so we can replace grief, anger, and anxiety with hope, resilience, and strength. MAS Attack is about showing up, sharing art, and reminding each other that we are in this together. We invite all forms of art, all styles, and all voices. Your voice matters.

This is just the beginning. Small steps, but important ones. Let’s come together, renew our bonds, and support each other. Join us on Friday, December 13th—and be part of the future.

Spread the word!

Facing REFLECTION at the Korean Cultural Center

By

I am thrilled to be participating in:

REFLECTION at the The Korean Cultural Center, Los Angeles in partnership with Launch LA  co-juried by Sunook Park and Terrell Tilford

 A reflection may be an image mirrored back to the observer or serious thought and consideration. In the case of this exhibition, it’s both. Launch LA, in partnership with the Korean Cultural Center presents “Reflection”, an open call exhibition. 

Sunook Park is a professor in the CSULB School of Art and Brand Coach at SUNOOKPARK Branding. He is the independent curator and founder of ANDLAB: a motivational retreat center, alternative exhibition space, and education lab of art and design thinking.

Terrell Tilford is an accomplished actor as well as long time collector and curator of contemporary and modern art. He founded Band of Vices in the West Adams area of LA in 2015. The gallery serves as a platform for emerging, mid-career & established Contemporary artists.

LAUNCH LA believes exposure to the arts enhances quality of life and strengthens community through the shared appreciation of creative expression in all its forms and hybrids. LAUNCH LA is passionate about providing artists with quality opportunities to present themselves and their creations that reflect our times to a curious and enthusiastic audience at important happenings throughout Los Angeles.

The Korean Cultural Center, Los Angeles (KCCLA) is the axis of Korean heritage in Los Angeles. KCCLA welcomes the general public to experience Korea’s rich traditions and history through specialized programs, sponsored events, and multiple learning resources. KCCLA will always aspire to promote cultural exchanges in southern California and continue to take initiative in globalizing the excellence of Korean culture.

REFLECTION

A LAUNCH LA  GROUP EXHIBITION

In partnership with The Korean Cultural Center, Los Angeles

AUGUST 6 – AUGUST 27, 2021

 A reflection may be an image mirrored back to the observer or serious thought and consideration. In the case of this exhibition, it’s both. “Reflection” brings together artists from across Southern California whose practices contemplate and reflect our times.  Through their work, they provide an authentic lens to view contemporary culture.
