  • LOS/NR is proud to present the work of six impressive artists living and working in Los Angeles, curated by our guest curator, Jason Jenn. The exhibition gathers painting, assemblage, fiber-based art, and sculpture to explore the varied ways that time weaves itself into the human experience. Time can be sweet or savage in its treatment, and each piece offers a different perspective on life through its varied minutes and milestones, through gestures, textures, fragments, and forms. Through the exchange of materials, the artists chart emotional landscapes and trace the rhythms that shape our daily lives. What we choose to hold onto, what we take time to craft, and what we carry forward define the ways in which we come to comprehend "The Measure of Our Days." Participating artists are: Enrique Castrejon, Ellen Friedlander, Duane Paul, Joaquin Stacey-Calle, Kayla Tange, and Sean Yang. Enjoy free ice cream at the reception (while supplies last)! level of service not required on Instagram
