Tierra del Sol Gallery is delighted to present Bazaar Bazaar, our annual end-of-the-year exhibition featuring each of our Tierra Studio Arts Program artists, now numbering over 140. This exhibition is a manifestation of all the hard work that our collective members put into their studio practice year round. But beyond that, it is a demonstration of the boundless ideas and interests they each explore and articulate in rich, vast, and unpredictable manners through various materials.

Like last year, one work has been selected from each artist in the program. Together, our team spent hours at both the Sunland and Upland studios and chose works that, when contextualized alongside each other, would highlight and complement each other, while also creating quaint and compartmentalized markets of whimsy. Bazaar Bazaar is simultaneously an elevated gallery exhibition and an extended down-to-earth shopping event. We strive to make everyone feel at ease while visiting the gallery at all times, but this is a fun opportunity to do so with full freedom from any outside forces and absolute appreciation for the potential of a more direct cultural exchange.

Bazaar Bazaar, as a yearly tradition, provides us with a platform to showcase the range and the depth of our artists and the community that has been built and continues to be built among them over time. Much like vendors at a market, our artists get to know each other week after week — their backgrounds, their ambitions, their lifestyles, etc. — and these relationships certainly have an effect on these individuals and their work. Each time we enter their studios, we learn so much from and about them, just as they learn from and about each other.

This year’s bazaar includes a wide assortment of shops from the feathers and fur shop to the globetrotter shop to the home and garden shop to the prism shop. This is where the conceptual and the pragmatic playfully collide for us here at Tierra. Within each shop, you will find stunning works by familiar names who have been featured at or by the gallery numerous times over the years, such as Marlena Arthur, Tony Barnes, John Maull, Dru McKenzie, and Joe Zaldivar, alongside plenty of new surprises by so many of our other amazing artists who share studio space with them. Bazaar Bazaar is at once a serious celebration and a spunky spectacle; come say hi and celebrate within the spectacle!

Bazaar Bazaar opens at Tierra del Sol Gallery in West Hollywood on Saturday, November 15th with a reception from
6-8 pm. The exhibition will be on view through December 23rd, 202
