Fallen Fruit: Fruitique!

This art installation/ thrift store is part of Arts ReSTORE LA: Westwood. Everything is fruit themed within the space including the wallpaper, numerous thrift store finds and even the music playing (Cherry Bomb was on when I was there- although that may have been coincidence).  They are also planning fruit related activities throughout the event.

Fallen Fruit is an art collaboration originally conceived by David Burns, Matias Viegener, and Austin Young.

They are also part of the Ojai Art Festival this weekend.

Halloween may be over but you can keep the spirit alive by checking out this terrifying (if you are scared of clowns) section of the show Room to Live currently at MOCA Grand Avenue. The show features works from MOCA’s permanent collection with an emphasis on recent acquisitions, including a room of photos by Nan Goldin and the second work pictured above- Desert Sun by Mark Handforth.

MOCA is free tonight (Thursday) and Marnie Weber is discussing her work. RSVP here.

Want to prepare yourself for the room of clowns- here’s a video of the installation.

Don’t forget to look behind the clown who has lost its dog.
