Carnivora

L’Imagerie Gallery, North Hollywood
On Saturday we met our friends, Christine and Michael at La Maria's Colombian Restaurant in North Hollywood for a pre-art opening dinner. Soon, I will post about La Maria's. It was excellent! We had a marvelous dinner.
Across the street from Maria's, L’Imagerie Gallery just moved to a new location. The exhibit is called "Carnivora: The Dark Art of Automobiles." Many artists from the low-brow scene were represented, including SHAG; Coop, Dennis Larkins; Robert Williams (godfather of the low-brow art movement); custom car god, George Barris and many more. There were paintings, sculptures, posters. The place was packed. There was even a mini-car show of vintage rods in the parking lot. It was a scene, man.
