Concrete Walls Projects and JAUS present, Case Study Los Angeles II: On the Perimeter, the second installment of an ongoing curatorial examination of different modes of study in Los Angeles.
This localized gathering within the sprawl of Los Angeles is a study of the virtual and physical landscape and its social and cultural behaviors, along with the archaeological unveiling of taboo ideas exposing the outer rim. Nine artists show new work investigating the idea of the perimeter, by making art in the heart of LA.
Case Study: Los Angeles (2011) at PØST was the catalyst that sparked a new collaboration between Concrete Walls Projects and an artist-run-space. In an effort to attain a community exchange and discourse among artists, this follow- up rendition is designed to reveal diverse hypotheses for artistic investigation. These artists arouse a dialogue, as they obsessively work to discover or often rediscover the transforming definition of what it means to be influenced by living and working in the “City of Angels.”
Concrete Walls Projects is an artist run, curatorial project focusing on building community through collaborative exhibitions, educational projects, lectures and interdisciplinary gatherings with non-profits, artist-run-spaces, and educational institutions in Southern California. Established in 2003 by Devon Tsuno, Concrete Walls Projects has previously worked with Angels Gate Cultural Center, Cypress College, CSULB, Irvine Fine Arts Center, the Loft, PØST, and Summercamp’s ProjectProject.
