MOCA: Art in the Streets
Saturday night was the members opening of the first major US museum exhibit of street art and graffiti at the Geffen Contemporary at MOCA. We felt energized just to be a part of this unique visual showcase. Great old school rap and engaging crowd. Tracing the movement from the 1970's to today, the installations were varied and painstakingly curated. There are several shows within the show, interactive installations and even an LA version of Street Market. 50 of the most dynamic artists to emerge from the street scene are included. http://www.moca.org/ Not to be missed. From April 17 - August 8, 2011. There are so many new places to dine downtown, plus a new appreciation for the surrounding neighborhood's graffiti.
