Art/Design Gallery Scary Beasts at Copro Nason Gallery

July 27, 2009 - 11:14 am

On July 11th, Copro Nason gallery hosted the opening reception of Monster? – a group exhibit curated by creature painter extraordinaire Travis Louie. The chief premise of this show is to give production design professionals a chance to show off their skills in a fine art environment. Ghouly beauties, scary beasties and several cephalopods greeted visitors from the walls of the fashionable alternative art gallery. Come to think of it, sexy beasts were to be seen on the walls as well as out on the floor in equal parts – among them flame-haired LA sweetheart  Lenora Claire and Doctor Sketchy’s creator Molly Crabapple, who had a piece in the exhibit.

The fabled Kogi Korean BBQ taco truck was on-site, with an impressive line stretching across the Bergamot Station lot. The kimchi tacos were completely worth the wait!
