Neo LA Gallery is proud to present "MandalaLA," a captivating exhibition featuring the works of six contemporary local artists. This showcase celebrates creativity and diversity within the vibrant Los Angeles art scene.

Each artist brings a unique perspective to the theme of mandalas, interpreting this ancient symbol through modern lenses of culture, identity, and personal expression. The exhibition will feature diverse mediums including painting, sculpture, and mixed media, offering visitors a rich tapestry of artistic exploration.

"We are thrilled to highlight the talent of these six exceptional artists," says Tetsuji Aono, curator of the exhibition. "MandalaLA invites viewers to immerse themselves in intricate patterns, vibrant colors, and profound symbolism, reflecting both individual journeys and collective narratives."

The exhibition will open to the public on July 12, at Neo LA Gallery located in the heart of Los Angeles. Guests can expect an evening of artistic discovery, with opportunities to meet the artists and engage in dialogue about their inspirations and creative processes.

Join us in experiencing the beauty and depth of MandalaLA, where local artistry flourishes against the backdrop of our dynamic city.

Where contemporary art frequently examines the personal, private inner lives of artists and subjects, or uses the landscape as a metaphor for psychological and emotional experience — these artists evoke and infuse that living, soulful level of existence into the edifices and architecture of the built environment.

April 7th -May 6th 2017 New Art Center 
Newton Massachusetts
The International Encaustic Artists (IEA) and the New Art Center in Newton (NAC) join together to present "In Flawed Abundance." Juried by Miles Conrad of Conrad Wilde Gallery and organized by IEA Exhibitions Co-Chair Lola Baltzell, this exhibition explores the riddle of living, the struggle to be content with the moment, with what is. Rather than wishing things were different -- not wanting what we have, wanting what we don't have, Mr. Nepo points to the deep truth that everything we need is right before us. Encaustic painting lends itself perfectly to this concept of here and now. There is an immediacy to encaustic which suits an intuitive style of working and its inherent translucent characteristics readily express a wide range of subject matter.

AMBIGUOUS BEING, as a video art-library and film program, presents works of artists from 
Taipei, Tel Aviv and Berlin. Political, social and cultural 
identities of the cities, as centers of controversy debates on 
the future of community values and society, are demanded 
and related by crucial boundary experiences and 
confrontations with the other.

In February 2011, we stayed in the Cite des Arts in Paris, France for a six month artist residency. Our studio number in Paris was Studio 2224. There, we met artists in different fields, from all over the world. In addition to focusing on creating our own work, we were inspired by each other’s music, films and performances. We socialized, talked about life, and even collaborated.

After we came back from Paris in July 2011, I started to look for a space will continue that spirit we had in Paris, so we started an artist run space just called studio 2224,
and we hope Studio 2224 Taipei will continue that spirit of spontaneous collaboration, and we hope you will join us!

Update- 
Studio2224 was currently closed down in Taipei.
It was a great project, and we really had a great few years running it :)

Paris, through the ages, has always attracted artists and intellectuals from around the world. Each year, the \"Cité Internationale des Arts\" offers a variety of international artists the opportunity to work in Paris, getting to know the city, its inhabitants and the local art scene.
What were the expectations, ideas and conceivabilities in taking up this scholarship? In which ways are artists influenced by this place rich in tradition and history? What kind of production conditions and new opportunities are they facing?

The exhibition \"Le Choix de Paris\" brings together the work of Cité-scholars from various fields of visual arts. It shows works in which artists - from different countries with a different cultural background – deal with their stay in Paris, responding to the city, its everday life, referring to current happenings, to events of the day, and to their own experiences.

Vernissage le 22 juin 2011 de 19h00 à 00h00. 2011

L\'empreinte du temps
 
On ne se baigne jamais deux fois dans le même fleuve, car ce sont toujours de nouvelles eaux qui coulent -- Héraclite d\'Ephèse  

Combien de chances y a-t-il de voir trois personnes collaborer ensemble? Taiwan est une île qui a sept heures de décalage horaire avec la France. Nous sommes trois artistes venant de Taiwan et nous avons franchi ces sept heures de décalage pour arriver ici.

Nous avons plongé dans la rivière du temps de Paris, qui fut à la fois celle de Marcel Proust, Walter Benjamin et Jean-Luc Godard…

Nous présentons trois projets liés au temps, considéré sous trois points de vue différents :
