Light & Wire Gallery is a new and compelling curatorial project between Gladys Hernando and Jessica Minckley. I think that this project is a refreshing necessity in the landscape that the LA art world has become. The city is hungry for alternative, yet bright projects, and we need to engage in new dialogues about the state of the art production within this community. Which also means developing ideas outside of the borders.
With Light & Wire, Hernando and Minckley created a concept of a space using the web as its main premise and evolving beyond the restraining four concrete walls. The space could easily evolve inside another neighborhood, or another city, even another country.
Light & Wire will be a project to look for. Check the website the first of every month for a new show to open.
The inaugural exhibition, FAULT LINE, is comprised of five Los Angeles-based artists: Ginny Cook, Nora Jean Petersen, Jill Spector, Brendan Threadgill, and Lisa Williamson.
