Los Angeles
February 12, 2020
Letter from the editor:
It's Frieze Week, which means that many of us in the art world are feeling overwhelmed by our inboxes and lists of events. To help you digest it all, Matt Stromberg put together a Concise Guide to the fairs happening in Los Angeles this week.
The Spring/Break Art Show is returning to Los Angeles for its second year and it is offering special discounted tickets for Hyperallergic readers. The first 50 readers get $10 off when they use the code HYPEREXCESS2020. You can get tickets here.
Whether you live in Los Angeles or are here for the long weekend, I recommend you take the opportunity to visit all the wonderful shows opening at museums and galleries this week as well. With the help of contributor Abe Ahn, we put together a Los Angeles Spring Art Guide to highlight around 60 exciting shows across the city that have already opened or that will open in the next few months. Stay tuned for the print versions of the guide, which will be distributed at art spaces across the city by the end of February.
This also seems like a good time to pull up our map and guide to art spaces in Los Angeles.
Good luck, and most of all: enjoy yourself!
