LA Art Documents is operated by interdisciplinary artists and our curatorial practice is an extension of our art practice, just as we view our camera work and editing process. We feel fortunate that through our business we have access to a variety of excellent art exhibitions and the ability to connect with artists from all over the region. We select art and artists with distinct voices and diverse perspectives and are always considering opportunities to include artists in particular themes and venues. Our curatorial approach is to select works that create exciting dialogues between the other artworks and the particular environment of each venue. We have a wide range of tastes and styles that fascinate us, and we like to share that enjoyment with others. While we have our particular vision for the exhibition, we champion that each artist gets to express their vision as an individual alongside the collective. We enjoy exhibitions that inspire, provoke, amuse, and challenge, so we aim to provide similar journeys that allow for unexpected experiences and layers of interpretation.
