Carlos Fentanes (CF): Can you name your top five favorite artists of your gallery and your top five works of art?

They didn’t answer.

It is always harder to get an answer from galleries in big cities and that’s the case with this gallery in LA area, maybe they’re busier than galleries in small cities; but in the other hand they have a very good website with a lot of information about past, present and future exhibition about their gallery and their artists so it is worth to take a look at it the link is clicking the top photo.

Take a look at MATTHEW GRABELSKY Jungle Train. Their paintings, yes they are paintings, show people in the underground train with heads of animals.

It looks by how the information is set that the gallery is very active, they also have a shop in their website, and they have detailed info of each work of art even measurements in inches and centimeters and information about submissions; they are not actively seeking submissions but they can review your material is you think it’ll fit with what they have in their gallery (i.e. new contemporary, pop surrealism, outsider, graffiti, street art, etc.).
