“The Dangerous Science of Young Gentlemen,” Featuring new works by Alexander p. E . DIY Gallery is pleased to present “The Dangerous Science of Young Gentlemen,” featuring new works by Alexander p. E . Through written text, spoken word, and found object sculpture, Alexander produces a radical critique of historical and modern culture, rejecting dominant trends of commodification and detachment. Instead, the artist rearranges the banal objects of everyday life into forms vibrant with theory and thought. What results is a snapshot of history quite unlike what you may have been taught – and a glimpse of the future, shaped by freedom and the creative will. “The Dangerous Science of Young Gentlemen” opens Saturday, June 28th with a reception from 7-11 P.M. 1218 W Temple Street, 90026

DIY Gallery is pleased to present “Little Utopia,” a new installation by Chris Avitable, James Fish, and Mario Richeda. Combining collage, painting, sound, and sculpture furniture, the artists share a vision of Utopia / Dystopia. Drawing inspiration from literature, sci-fi movies and music, this exhibit makes an effort to redefine a contemporary vision of Utopia.
