Channing Hansen features in 'Step & Repeat'
Inspired by the historical Pattern and Decoration movement of the mid-1970s and its impact across the region, Step & Repeat highlights 46 Southern California artists who engage with themes of pattern and decoration. The exhibition seeks to create a dialogue around those concepts, encompassing both direct explorations of the subject and works that approach it peripherally.
The exhibition’s title, Step & Repeat is a term used for publicity backdrops at special events, particularly red carpet premieres. While this slightly tongue in cheek reference to Hollywood hints at LAMAG’s physical proximity, it also reflects the repetitive and systematic qualities inherent in patterns within the works on view.
Exhibiting artists include Channing Hansen, Nick Aguayo, Carole Caroompas, Edi Dai, Amir Fallah, Ishi Glinsky, Lorenzo Hurtado Segovia, Jim Isermann, Soo Kim, Jaime Muñoz, Caris Reid, Mindy Shapero and Bari Ziperstein.
The group exhibition is curated by Nancy Meyer and John Weston.
