Image by Susan Van Atta This exhibition exposes contemporary artistic practices and novel signatory presences derived from broad interdisciplinary dialogues. Its focus on architecture, photography, and landscape architecture realigns artistic boundaries and proposes an inclusive understanding of art. The intricate dialogues between natural and built environment suggested by the artists are emphasized by innovative displays and eclectic use of media. Elegant lines, sophisticated shapes, and idiosyncratic palettes create a vibrant calligraphy with significant conceptual ramifications.

Postmodern Calligraphies invites viewers to reflect about art not as an isolated and temporary presence, but as a vital ingredient of life.
The show is organized in conjunction with the exhibition Insight/Inside LA at José Drudis-Biada Gallery at Mt. St. Mary’s College, and the annual College Art Conference, held in Los Angeles, February 24-March 1. The opening reception on Sunday, March 1st, 12-2pm, will coincide with a CAA conference tour which includes both exhibitions and a visit to the Getty Villa.
