Solo exhibitions by artists (chosen by Vallance) James Goodwin, Laurie Hassold, Marjan Hormozi, Dave Shulman, and Scottie Vera will occupy separate spaces within the remainder of the gallery.

James Goodwin’s work integrates found objects, thrift store junk, and props from collectible shops, drawing and text, as well as computer-manipulated content to convey a story. The boundaries between art and science become blurred in Laurie Hassold’s work, as she focuses on how these disciplines each negotiate the split between mind and body. In her drawings, Marjan Hormozi works with satirical themes within a historical precedent: filtering them through contemporary actors and staging them in theater-like settings suggesting Southern California locations. Exhibit Dave is a mix of text, artwork and artifacts generated from Dave Shulman’s columns in the L.A. Weekly (Sitegeist and Column Dave), which ran from 1998 until 2007 and included stories on interesting subjects including involuntary cheerleading, Polynesian butt plugs, among others. As he explores issues of crustaceanism and Dom Deluise, emerging Los Angeles painter, Scottie Vera works in a wide variety of media and styles.
