Work by 26 artists, from our cutting edge generation of emerging stars, will be contained in two spectacular downtown spaces. The exhibition includes the highest-quality paintings, sculptures, drawings, installations, photographs, and video.

This prestigious exhibition combines a selection of top artworks with an exciting program of special performances, parties and crossover events. Exhibition sites are located on 6th Street on the corners of Main and Los Angeles, in the city's beautiful downtown Historic Bank District. The exhibition is within easy walking distance of The Standard Hotel, and driving distance of the beach.

The show will be a vital source for art lovers, allowing them to discover new developments in contemporary art. A tour de force, LAAGAFBLA08 is the favorite summer meeting place for the international art world.
