Now on view at OXY ARTS and JOAN in Los Angeles is UCLA Department of Art alum Roksana Pirouzmand’s solo exhibition “everything was once something else.” Working with clay and metal, materials born of the earth and shaped by fire, Pirouzmand explores their contrasting qualities: one absorbent and porous; the other resonant and reverberant. The exhibition was featured in the New York Times’ “5 Standout Shows During Frieze.”
What does Frieze week mean, you ask? Essentially, an abundance of contemporary art fairs across the city are anchored by the annual Frieze Los Angeles, which happens from Feb. 26 – March 1 at the Santa Monica Airport. Tickets for this signature event can be pricey, but there are half a dozen other options to pursue if you’re in the market for a new piece or just want to marvel at some of the greatest local and global artists working today. Check out a full list of events from KCRW.
