Tierra del Sol Gallery presents Bazaar Bazaar, an end-of-the-year exhibition featuring all 130 Tierra Studio Arts Program artists. Opening reception Saturday, November 16, 6-8 PM   On view November 16 - December 21, 2024

Bazaar the show celebrates and highlights the diverse interests and genres of artists at both the Upland and Sunland Studios.

This year, Tierra del Sol gallery director Paige Wery selected one work from each artist, and from these found common themes that together playfully suggest a marketplace of delights. Bazaar Bazaar offers visitors an immersive experience that engages multiple senses, from tactile ceramics and textiles to colorful watercolors, portraits and landscapes.

As gallery director, Wery doesn’t dictate or guide Tierra del Sol artists’ practices, and this exhibition demonstrates the same model of studio-to-gallery relationships that built and maintain the art canon. Encountering the sublime and bringing that experience into the public imagination is exemplified in this year’s group show, while breaking the boundaries of the canon to include those once considered outsiders. (click here to read full press release).

Bazaar Bazaar opens at Tierra del Sol Gallery in West Hollywood on Saturday, November 16th with a reception from 6-8 pm. The exhibition will be on view through December 21st, 2024.
