The Pit
3015 Dolores St
Los Angeles, CA 90065 United States
The soirée will coincide with the release of the milestone 40th issue of our quarterly print magazine. The event will also feature our first-ever art auction of accessibly-priced works on paper by an impressive roster of L.A.-based artists, and all works will be on view at the party.
 

Founded in 2015 by artist and writer Lindsay Preston Zappas, Contemporary Art Review Los Angeles (Carla) is an essential voice made in and for Los Angeles.

Carla produces a free quarterly magazine and online reviews, and remains committed to building entry-points into the arts for the greater L.A. community. In celebration of ten years of being an impactful presence in the landscape, Carla is hosting our first-ever art auction which will conclude at our anniversary soirée. The impressive roster of L.A.-based artists participating in the art auction of accessibly-priced works on paper mirror Carla’s dynamic and inclusive coverage – and many of them have been featured in our pages over the last decade.

About the Auction: 
The auction will go live online on May 30 and conclude at the in-person event on June 14 at The Pit. Each of the 104 L.A. based artists included have contributed a small, accessibly-priced 5 x 7 inch work on paper; this small-scale format is inspired by blow-in cards found between the pages of print magazines. Some artists have reinterpreted this theme across other mediums: small sculptures, ceramics, photography, and fiber works are also included. The starting bid for all artworks will be $300.
