On Saturday, July 9th, a new exhibit by Los Angeles painter Jim Barrett titled LA/Complex opened to the public at the bG Gallery in Bergamot Station. To celebrate the opening, bG Gallery invited members of the Santa Monica community to visit the exhibit and share light bites, wine and stimulating conversation. Barrett has painted his L.A. neighbors who come from demographics sometimes looked down upon or forgotten so as to draw attention to their being fully realized human beings. Also on display is a 30 foot multi-paneled work titled The War Complex, inspired by how humans function in wartime. The exhibit will remain open through July 23rd.
