Carl Baratta

I shift images on the studio wall around and hang different paintings and drawings of mine next to each other in hopes that seeing things together will yield new possibilities for new paintings; the more on the wall to ponder over the better. The imagery is driven by mythology, poetry, songs, frankensteined bits of doodles, visual puns, paint blobs, and plein air. In addition to being an artist, I am proud to be co-director and an actively curating member of the artist run space, Tiger Strikes Asteroid, a member of Gallery ALSO and a co-founder of High Beams. As I wander around Los Angeles keeping an eye out for interesting things around every corner I wonder what comes next.

Beck+Col

Through costume-based performance and video, we utilize a monstrous form to reflect the horror of humanity’s actions. The monsters are at once silly, playful and exceptionally brutal. The destructive nature of the phantasmagorical figures are violent personifications embodying the parasitic core of our socioeconomic system--the over consumption and exploitation of the world’s biodiversity through “opportunistic trans-species commodification of Life that is the logic of advanced capitalism.” (Posthuman, Braidotti).

Sam Cherry [1913-2009]

Cherry was born in 1913 in Philadephia, the son of Russian emigrants who barely escaped persecution in the Ukraine. His father a tailor, dabbled in bootlegging whiskey in their basement. Eventually he was caught and jailed, and the entire family fled to Los Angeles where they lived in poverty for many years in Hollywood. At the age of 16, Sam joined the ranks of thousands of downtrodden men and youth around the country, and hit the rails. He eventually settled in San Francisco, where he picked up a camera and began to capture the Great Depression. Years later, through mutual friends, Sam was introduced to the writer Charles Bukowski, who once stated that Sam Cherry’s tough character was an influential component in his creation of his own tough guy persona and protagonists. Cherry’s son, poet Neeli Cherkovski, and Bukowski became life-long friends, eventually starting their own literary magazine together. (Neeli would later write Bukowski’s biography). Sam and Neeli spent a great deal of time with Bukowski, during which Cherry captured took some of Bukowski’s most iconic images. In the early 1960s Sam opened up Cherry’s Bookstore and Art Gallery, an intellectual and artistic sanctuary in San Bernardino, well-known as a stopover for hippies and cultural explorers traveling along route 66.

John Collins

John Collins is an artist and handyman living in Los Angeles with his poet wife, Ingrid. John and Ingrid tuck into their nightly sanctuary with the ever so romantic hope that they will create lasting contributions to society. During the baseball season, John paints a nightly baseball comic called Moonlight Graham, which are ink paintings documenting a top play from that day’s action. His practice outside of the nightly baseball comic consists of painting and drawing traditional subject matter with traditional media on non-traditional art surfaces he has salvaged from handyman jobs (plywood, wallpaper, drywall, concrete or stucco scraps). John’s stark, stoic and exceedingly fatalistic philosophy guides an art practice rooted in constantly questioning social norms.   

Why are you participating? 'In some countries it is required by law to vote. In some countries Election Day is a National Holiday so no one has to try to vote around their work schedule. In this country, it has become more and more difficult to vote, and voting is the most important and most essential part of a democracy. Voting should be simple. I support any effort to bring the power balance back in favor of the people.'

Simone Gad

Simone Gad is a self-taught artist who was born in Brussels, Belgium to parents who were Polish Holocaust survivors. The family moved to Los Angeles in the 1950s and Gad, then in her youth, began her career as an actress, which she has continued professionally throughout her life. Mentored in the early seventies by Wallace Berman and Al Hansen, Gad is a painter, assemblage/collage, and performance artist. The exhibition features collages with oil pastels and paintings. Her painting is influenced greatly by the Art Brut movement and work such as the thick impasto paintings of Frank Auerbach and the organic violence of Louise Bourgeois’ sculpture. These abstracted Brussels art nouveau and Chinatown (Los Angeles) facades are dense, thick constructions, created with thick layers of acrylic paint. The work creates a tension of barely balanced architectural shapes. Gad’s collages are expressive, kinetic, and playful, consisting of rescued animal drawings overlayed on vintage nude pinups. Combining the vulnerability of both the models and the rescues, she’s relating her own desire for being rescued—how they might rescue each other from the trauma of being objects to be discarded.

Alexander Iskin

Highly influenced by Gilles Deleuze’s concepts in Francis Bacon: The Logic of Sensation, 28-year-old Iskin attempts to keep in mind that representational cliches are ripe within the artist’s mind before even paint touches blank canvas. This wrestling with how representational images are stored in the consciousness is one of the themes of his work. This gave birth to his “interreality” painting process, where Iskin purposely consumes large amounts of information through the Internet, and then paints (oil is his preferred medium), attempting to let loose subconscious imagery. Iskin’s work emerges from his ideas about “interreality” which is the world between digital and physical existence. Considering what it means to be a passive consumer of quick and successive images through phones, Apple products are specifically the target of his work. Iskin’s ideas about image consumption culminated in a performance at Sexauer Gallery in Berlin where Iskin, with the side glance of humor on the pun, Iskin eats a crisp apple while pummeling an iPhone and a Mac computer with a sledgehammer, punctuating the show with his own retreat from social media. In some works Iskin uses iMac computer lookalikes as frames for oil paintings. By placing the painting where the screen once existed, the work becomes an internal internet with only a static image.

Seth Kane Kwei (1922–1992)

In the 1950s, Seth Kane Kwei, a young carpenter, made a palaquin in the shape of a cocoa pod for one such chief. Unfortunately, the chief died unexpectedly before the festival, so he was buried in the palanquin instead. At his funeral, the unique coffin drew many admirers. Not long after, Kane Kwei's grandmother died. Growing up in Teshie, a coastal suburb near Accra's airport, she had always been mystified by the planes flying overhead. However, she never got the chance to take a flight. Remembering the enthusiasm of the crowds at the chief's funeral a few months earlier, Kane Kwei decided to commemorate her death by giving her something she had not been able to accomplish in life. He buried her in a coffin shaped like an airplane, so she could fly into the afterlife. Within a few weeks, local people began to request unique coffins. Fisherman asked for a boat; a farmer, for an onion. The coffins, also popularly known as abebuu adekai or "proverb boxes," quickly became one of Ghana's most unique traditions.

I am a San Francisco artist. For the last 20 years my drawings and paintings deal with specific issues of Race in America. As a Buddhist each work I make is a meditation in action, not passive, not thinking. Only responding to shape color and form. America has to look at itself and ask 'Who are we as a nation and what do we want America to be moving forward?' "Artist do not escape or hide in their art. They engage in the world through their art. They hold up a mirror to society, to what most people are afraid to confront. They are courageous people." – EK.2020.

Sarana Mehra

Sarana Mehra is a multidisciplinary artist whose work examines the relation between the body, body-politic and the cycle of disintegration and evolution in human-made systems like art, language and technology. Drawing on the imaging and stories of Eastern and Western mythologies and the artifacts of past civilizations gathering dust in our museums, Sarana uses her practice to examine a “future relic”. Each piece, like the remnants of our ancestors, leaves clues and symbols but ultimately obfuscates their contemporary use and ritual. Her work posits that despite our technological advancements we remain, like our primordial forebears who left their handprints on the cave wall, desperate to be remembered yet unable to thwart decay. Sarana Mehra is a​ bi-racial British-American artist living and working in Los Angeles. Her work has been shown in various art institutions in the US and Europe, most recently the Wignall Museum of Contemporary Art (LA), The Pit (LA), 00-LA, (LA), Strasse55 (Berlin), and the Every Woman Biennial (LA). Sarana gained her BFA from the University of Oxford and her MFA from Central Saint Martins College of Art & Design (London).

Douglas Pérez Castro

Cuban artist Douglas Perez Castro’s work reflects on such subjects as colonialism, race, and history from his unique perspective. Framed by the “Periodo Especial”—the period of economic and political upheaval that has followed the failure of perestroika—his work emerged from the unique ambiguity, complexity, energy, and desperation that characterized daily life in Cuba in the 1990s. Castro was born 1972 in Cienfuegos, a city with a long colonial history. That colonialism plays strongly in his work along with themes of race, history, class structures and castes. To tell his stories, convey his ideas, and critique his world, Perez Castro references such disparate elements as Vermeer, Christo, steam punk, the Cuban avant-garde, and political cartoons from 19th-century Havana newspapers. His pointed droll scene of colonial-era life in Cuba is always satirically distorted with juxtapositions of the ignored darker histories and with contemporary art references.

Manuel Ocampo

Manuel Ocampo (b. 1965 Philippines) currently lives and works in Manila, Philippines and in Luxembourg. Ocampo has been a vital presence on the international art scene for over twenty years and is now the most internationally active contemporary artist from the Philippines. Ocampo’s first solo show, which took place in Los Angeles in 1988, set the stage for a rapid rise to international prominence. By the early 1990s, his reputation was firmly established, with inclusion in two of the most important European art events, Documenta IX (1992) and the Venice Biennale (1993). Also in the early 1990s, he participated in the legendary exhibition Helter Skelter: L.A. Art in the 1990s at The Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles (1992). Ocampo is known for fearlessly tackling the taboos and cherished icons of society and of the art world itself. During the 1990s, he was noted for his bold use of a highly charged iconography that combined Catholic imagery with motifs associated with racial and political oppression, creating works that make powerful, often conflicted, statements about the vicissitudes of personal and group identities. His works illustrate, often quite graphically, the psychic wounds that cut deep into the body of contemporary society. They translate the visceral force of Spanish Catholic art, with its bleeding Christs and tortured saints, into our postmodern, more secular era of doubt, uncertainty, and instability.

Dennis Oppenheim (1938–2011)

Dennis Oppenheim (September 6, 1938 – January 21, 2011) was an American conceptual artist, performance artist, earth artist, sculptor and photographer. Dennis Oppenheim's early artistic practice is an epistemological questioning about the nature of art, the making of art and the definition of art: a meta-art that arose when strategies of the Minimalists were expanded to focus on site and context. As well as an aesthetic agenda, the work progressed from perceptions of the physical properties of the gallery to the social and political context, largely taking the form of permanent public sculpture in the last two decades of a highly prolific career, whose diversity could exasperate his critics.

Burt Payne 3

Payne's sculptural works sift his personal 20th century cultural history. He often reconstitutes objects casting with wax, aluminum and bronze. His installations often teeter between life and death whether a Rube Goldberg contraption with a Jack Kevorkian purpose or a diving board installed at the bottom of the grave. Mechanical works explore futility. Doug Harvery wrote, Payne “puts a white-trash pop-cultural spin on the L.A. school of awkwardly translated everyday objects.” Fashioned from such diverse materials as record albums, pickled eggs, trailer hitches, Pendleton wool letters, wax castings, pool balls and many other objects that strongly connect to Payne’s adolescence, Burt Payne laces his work with wit and aspires to “recapture a disinterested public from a harsh, often unforgiving world.” Payne has works in many public and private collections including the San Jose Museum of Art and MoMA.

Elyse Pignolet

Pignolet’s recent body of work includes items of the domestic realm––wallpaper, plates, platters, and vases feature decorative and traditional hand-painted design. Yet cloaked words or phrases, which express familiar and oppressive ways to stereotype and categorize women, sit unobtrusively within the decoration. Pignolet subverts expectations in a medium associated with both domestic art and feminism, turning her attention to themes of misogyny and inequality. Vases, dishes, and drawings of ceramics are created with traditional, delicate, organic patterns in blue, yet upon closer inspection, images and text containing politically confrontational, unapologetic messaging hide within: suggestive innuendos and tropes that are all too common in our language and culture. The affect is a compelling dissonance between benign decoration and misogynistic message, which makes the viewer confront transitory everyday language frozen onto a permanent vessel. Born in Oakland, CA, Elyse Pignolet is an American with Filipino heritage, living and working in Los Angeles. Pignolet received a BFA in Ceramics from Cal State Long Beach in 2007. Recent solo and group exhibitions include Elyse Pignolet: You Should Calm Down, Track 16, Los Angeles, CA (2019); Elyse Pignolet: You Should Smile More, Koplin Del Rio, Seattle, WA (2019); Art & Activism: An Exhibition About Change, Maui Arts and Cultural Center, Kahului, HI (2019); Didn’t you know what you were carrying on your back?

She has completed several public art projects including three large murals at the SFJAZZ Center in San Francisco and the Gaffey Street Public Swimming Pool in the Los Angeles neighborhood of San Pedro. Her works have been featured in several contemporary arts publications including the LA Weekly, Juxtapoz Magazine, Huffington Post, KQED, and the Los Angeles Times. Pignolet was awarded a fellowship to the Ballinglen Arts Center, Ireland in 2019.

During the late 1990’s, she focused on drawings made in charcoal informed by images from poetry and art history. In these drawings, a fluid sense of space emerged in which both inside and outside weave together to depict a world infused with mystery and portent. Schulz continues to work primarily in charcoal, but since 2005 has turned from flat, single-image drawings to composing with multiple sheets of paper that shape and disrupt the picture plane. Schulz lives and works in Peekskill, NY. She teaches at Parsons School for Design and is a museum guide at Dia:Beacon.

Then Track 16 emailed me their letter and I thought donating through art is important. I am hoping you will include Joshua Tree area in your campaign and the Democratic Party we have here.'

Camilla Taylor

I was born in California, but grew up in the conservative Mormon town of Provo, UT. As soon as I could, I moved to what I thought of as the "big city," Salt Lake, and left the church I was raised in. In that den of iniquity, I attended the University of Utah and received my BFA. I received my MFA with an emphasis in printmaking from California State University at Long Beach in 2011, (on the dean’s list with Phi Kappa Phi Honors Society membership). I now live in Los Angeles with my partner and two cats and I love it here.

Why are you participating?

'I want to do what I can to ensure that Biden/Harris win on November 3rd. The threats to democracy from the Trump administration are severe, in addition to the very real threats to the environment, civil rights, and the rise of nationalistic fascism he encourages worldwide.'

Tara Tucker

I grew up in Santa Barbara, CA. in the 1970's. The family obsession of growing orchids, fruit trees, dogs, and parrots led my Mom and I to volunteer at the local natural history museum lab. There, taxidermy and Nature completed the memories of my childhood that now influence the majority of the subject matter I use for my art. I can and often do, address environmental issues around endangered species as a way to draw attention to the beauty and importance of these subjects. I use this fragile flora and fauna as vessels to depict human situations, body language and create empathy. The duality of personal narrative and environmental consciousness creates a surreal, and I hope, beautiful, connection between us and the natural world. 

Why are you participating?

'When I found out about this special fundraiser, I knew that I could possibly make a difference in a personal way. Making art for me isn't often political, beyond drawing attention to the state of our environment, but it is a deep part of what makes me a person. If I can help make a difference in our world by donating my artwork towards a cause that helps get out the vote, then I feel like I have really done something worth while. People need access to voting! I am thankful to be a part of this cause.'

Senon Williams

Senon’s search for truth leaves him amazed and baffled. Creating art is his meditation on meaning in the face of a fraught existence. His works on paper begin with fragments of humanity’s ongoing questions. The pairing of words and imagery suggest deeper meaning by creating a dialogue that invites us to support or defy multiple conclusions, how do we help and how do we hurt? His mind is filled with Jagged thoughts, art is the outlet. Native to Los Angeles, Senon Williams is a lifelong visual artist and musician. Williams’ work finds space in the natural, exposing outstanding and devastating stages of human evolution. “To provoke thought, a question works better then answers. I enjoy to start a story I resolve in different ways depending on my mood,” says Williams. With imagery ranging from stark silhouettes to lush landscapes and human forms staged in undetermined acts of hope, his pairing of words and imagery suggest deeper meaning. A poignant visualization of the inherent human struggle both ancient and contemporary.
