The Hammer Museum’s excellent, ongoing series of biennial exhibitions ups the ante each year with its spotlight on emerging and under-recognized L.A. artists, and we expect the upcoming fifth edition to be no exception. The
list of 30 artists includes
practitioners across all sorts of mediums, including paintings, sculptures, room-sized installations, ephemeral creations, dance performances, a one-man show and more. And for those Eastsiders scared of venturing too close to the 405, this year the Hammer is partnering with the Huntington Library to present works from all of the artists at the San Marino institution, as well. We’d suggest swinging by the Hammer first; members and visitors to the Hammer will receive free passes to the Huntington to see the rest of the exhibition.
