Thanks to all of our artists and supporters, too numerous to name. And to my staff, the Katherines, the Laurens, and the Josh. And very special thanks to the diehard folks who made Tinlark a part of their lives: Helen + Scott, Jonathan + Heidi, Kit + Murray, Arden + Dan, Matt + Katie, Dendrie + Adam, Seonna + Matt, Suzie, Moira, Sandra + DeDe, Sasha + Larry, Matthew + Melissa, Kenneth, Flora, Jon + Bonny, Nancy + Jason, Tiffiny + Adam, Rob + Jill, Cassandra + Joel, Eduardo, Sally + Paco, Kirston, Beth + P.K., Danny + Anya, Dave + Dawn, Anissa, Tracy + Michael, Fabienne + Jeremy, Karis + Marnie + Lee, Ashley, Kira + Ian, Deb + Bryan, Marsh, Daily Candy, Dangerbird, and lastly, that guy with the pinstriped suit, soul patch and questionable press credentials who came to every single opening and ate and drank heartily! We'll miss you all!
So that's the end of one Tinlark and the beginning of another. Look for Tinlark's booth at True Pablove on Feb. 5th, 2011. And it's a bit of a secret, but we may have a HUGE pop-up show planned for 2011 (stay tuned). And, for all you fresh stART fans, we'll be back with the freshest show ever in February, 2012.
(it sure was a lot of laughs!)

This Wilshire Corridor condominium was a blank slate from which a masterpiece was created. In conjunction with the ultra-talented architect, contractor and design team, a space was crafted in which to showcase a top-notch collection of Los Angeles based artists. From Mark Grotjahn to Aaron Morse to a UCLA MFA student, the paintings and sculptures reflect the spirit of my clients who are never afraid to take risks and never shy away from challenges.

Aaron Piland and Ayumi Kajikawa Piland are the fantastical magical duo
known as APAK. They are a childlike husband and wife collaborative art
group who live among the fury conifer giants in a little cottage on the
outskirts of Portland, Oregon. They create artwork together as a way
exploring the beauty, mystery, and magic of life as well as expressing
their love for life and each other.
They are known in particular for creating rich and colorful
gouache/acrylic paintings on wood featuring the utopian lives and
adventures of curious little beings living in lush fantastic environments
surrounded by friendly little animals, the landscapes are familiar yet
surreal, hinting at a fantastic narrative while suggesting truths about the
real world at the same time. Please visit them online at www.apakstudio.com or visit their
flickr site (click here)
Take a vacation in the city and join us for the opening reception of Scenic Route at Tinlark Gallery on Saturday, June 27, 6-9pm.
Scenic Route explores that sense of discovery and wonder we
all experience on vacation but somehow lose once we return
to our hectic everyday lives in Los Angeles. Artists Ana Serrano,
Katherine Siy and Sarah Stephens, all graduates of Art Center
School of Design, celebrate the amazing little signifiers of our
citified existence, the unique architecture, old signs, and miraculously
adaptable flora and fauna, that go unnoticed as we lead overly-scheduled,
hyper-stimulating lives.

CLEAN UP YOUR GRAVITY INDEX
Clean Up Your Gravity Index : Scott David Johnson + Kirsten Tradowsky
Show Running: April 4 - June 20 (extended)
Opening Reception: April 4 6-9pm
Tinlark warmly welcomes back Scott David Johnson for his second solo show in the Main Gallery.
Chicago artist Johnson creates oil paintings that are a survey of
recognizable objects that bloom in the landscape around us. Separating
most of these objects from their surroundings, Johnson allows their
contexts to evaporate, letting ambiguity fill the empty spaces. While
some of these objects explore the whimsy of once-dominant icons
dissolving into the mists of memory, others suggest messes that need to
be cleaned up, as lessons are learned from past mistakes. When Johnson
turns his eye on these objects, he shares with us his fascination with
their intricacies, no matter how obsolete, and their intriguing
patterns, no matter how troubling.
Also returning for her second solo show in the Project Room is San Francisco's Kirsten Tradowsky.
In her current series of oil paintings, there is a fluctuation between
mirage and reality, with monochromatic scuba divers in a field of
fireworks, or a gathering of tiny people inside a suitcase. Tradowsky
uses icons that represent order such as groups, clocks and numbers, and
intersperses them with elements of interruption and surprise. There is
a contrast between the scale of objects and people that induces a
tension between one’s internal and external experiences. In a world
that is at times monotonous and conformist, these paintings suggest
whimsical daydreams that give one a place for reinvention.
