About Workspace

workspace is a venue for exhibitions and projects. It was started in the autumn of 2008 as an accessible and flexible space for creative people to execute their ideas through site-specific artwork and installation. We host events and opening receptions, but do not maintain regular gallery hours. We encourage visitors to contact us for an appointment.

Exhibition Dates: Friday, June 5, 2009 - Saturday, June 6, 2009

The Scriptor series is meant to bring free form doodling into the digital world. For the project, Kim created his own letterform creation program that, purposefully, lacks many of the elements of professional graphics programs such as Illustrator and Flash that encourage symmetry, cut-and-paste, and the mathematically precise placement of objects that we associate with digital design, not to mention much digital art....more info

Blueboy
Exhibition Dates: Saturday, November 7, 2009 - Thursday, November 19, 2009
Reception: Saturday, November 7, 2009, 7-10pm
In Blue Boy, an installation at workspace by David Gilbert, objects veer from visual overflow to starkness. Moving between baroque and minimal sensibilities, the work shifts between sculpture, photography, and installation. The same or similar objects are often repeated throughout the show, an effect that creates a sense of visual rhyming. As elements are reused (and often altered) from piece to piece, their existence becomes tenuous and complex because they refuse to be defined by a specific medium in a singular object....more info

Lia Lowenthal
Drive-By Gallery
Exhibition Dates: Saturday, December 5, 2009 - Thursday, December 31, 2009
Reception: December 5, 2009, 6-9pm
Los Angeles-based painter Lia Lowenthal's enigmatic painting-objects crisscross personal and public histories. A number of alternations between painterly and drawing-based abstractions in vinyl shape a host of objects in a precipitating installation. Nonrepresentational yet familiar, these are new works in a space between poses, claiming the right to contradict themselves. They make right by the contradiction on the might of their doubled surfaces: nothing is fixed and fixed points are tried. ...more info
