Co-op28 Gallery Presents Richard Thornsberry & CJ Mammarella
May 9 – May 26, 2012
Opening Reception: Saturday, May 12 from 6-9pm

Co-op 28 Gallery is pleased to presents Los Angeles artists Richard Thornsberry & CJ Mammarella . Both Mammarella and Thornsberry celebrate the figure and all its glory. These unrepentant portrait artists toy with what is beautiful, powerful, uncomfortable and acceptable. Their works share many common themes but each artist has a unique approach when rendering their subjects. Thornsberry’s style hits you with a realistic brutality that is unapologetic and confrontational while Mammarella’s creations are more quiet and contemplative. Join us in celebrating these two talented visionaries.

Located at 1728 N. Vermont Ave. in Los Feliz, Co-op 28 Gallery is the exhibition annex to Marci Siegel's boutique Co-op 28. We have revolving shows offering the work of local artists in a new atmosphere that's both inviting and relaxing.

(Our gallery space is available for private parties, photo shoots and filming.)

Next Show: Veronica Florez & Samantha Viloria

Brainchild: 

March 7 – March 24, 2012

Opening Reception: Saturday, March 10 from 6-9pm

Co-op 28 Gallery is pleased to present Los Angeles artists Veronica Florez and Samantha Viloria.  Veronica Florez’s sculpture and mixed media work investigates the nocturnal aspects of a city; its growth, the industrial advancement, and the lull of wonder. This constantly evolving, theatrical landscape magnifies the fleeting interaction between strangers on the fringes of society, while highlighting the eventual evaporation and decay of all involved.

Samantha Viloria examines vague childhood memories and the perception of the self through her ink drawings and mixed media creations. Her characters are replete with the requisite confusion and anxiety of growing up and being conscious of one's appearance and actions while retaining a whimsical sense of humor through all the turmoil.

Join us on Saturday, March 10 from 6-9pm as we celebrate these Los Angeles artists!
