Event. Make It Real at GR2
Event. Make It Real at GR2: Giant Robot is an inspiration. Tomorrow night they're hosting another great event featuring Souther Salazar. Souther lives and works in Los Angeles. His artwork reinterprets the world making it a mythical place of carnivals, lost cities, giant insects, dinosaurs, and a variety of other animals. Souther mixes media, adding layers upon layers of storytelling making his work something to explore for hours. Souther Salazar graduated with a BFA from Art Center in Pasadena.
Tomorrow's show Make It Real was inspired by a long drive and wandering mind. Souther imagined stories, scenes, places, and things that made him feel positive and constructive. These thoughts are manifested in six large paintings: five 30" x 48" landscapes and one 48” x 48” square. Be sure to check out the show. It begins tomorrow and will end on October 31, allowing key works to appear at a Giant Robot-curated art show at the Japanese American National Museum. More details are listed after the jump.
An opening reception for Salazar will take place from 6:30 - 10:00 on Saturday, October 13.
