ART IN THE ARTHOUSE presents: CALEY O’DWYER: SCORING MOVEMENT in NoHo
ART IN THE ARTHOUSE proudly presents our latest NoHo exhibit CALEY O’DWYER: SCORING MOVEMENT. These bold, modern mixed media works are for sale and on display till October, 2018. Come on in and check out our gallery.
About the exhibit
CALEY O’DWYER is a practicing artist, writer and therapist based in Los Angeles at the Brewery Arts Complex. His body of work serves as unmistakable proof that the professional triangle of Art, Writing, and Therapy inform each other. In this series, O’Dwyer explores multiple selves through deft application in a variety of media. Each figure moves through space playing with time and boundaries, visually appearing as a horizontal musical score. Gouache and collage cutouts, and literal scratching to create and understand surface, are key aesthetics. The dynamic intersection of pluralism and the singular self through syncopation and movement is the result of O’Dwyer’s intelligent, clear vision.
As a licensed therapist, O’Dwyer works with artists and creatives. The “artist as therapist as artist” is a very real dialogue that plays itself through line and the duplication of lithe figures, both urban in their action and oceanic fresh in lime colors and tones.After earning an MFA in creative writing from UC IRVINE, O’Dwyer was awarded the Academy of American Poets Fellowship prize, nominated for the Pushcart Prize, and has been a recipient of a Helene Wurlitzer grant for poetry. He currently teaches creative writing at Antioch University in Los Angeles. He enjoys being able to present new creative writing prompts to his students and have them submit such different variations of the same prompt. Teaching people how to explore prompts and improve their writing really motivates him to improve his own work. O’Dwyer’s second book, Light, Earth and Blue, features poems written in response to the abstract expressionist paintings of MARK ROTHKO. The poems were featured at the TATE MODERN in London as part of a 2008 Rothko retrospective. Enjoy this exploration of the artist moving through a post-modern space.

ART IN THE ARTHOUSE presents: RAYMOND LOGAN: CARVING IN PAINT in Glendale
ART IN THE ARTHOUSE proudly presents the eye-popping exhibit RAYMOND LOGAN: CARVING IN PAINT at our sparkling new theatre, Laemmle Glendale. The art is for sale and on display till October 2018. Stop by our new galleries at Laemmle’s newest theatre; no need to buy a movie ticket to view.
About the exhibit
Don’t call Raymond Logan a “realistic artist.” While his work depicts real-life subject matter, it is fundamentally grounded in abstraction and intuition. His true goal is to create a dialogue with you, the viewer, whereby mutual discovery and re-imagining of “the self” can take place. “Without the viewer, I am that proverbial tree in the forest,” he muses.
Raised locally, Logan developed as an artist in that wonderful vacuum known as childhood. As a young adult, he went on to graduate from Art Center College of Design in Pasadena and proceeded to serve multiple tours of duty in graphic design and advertising. This cumulative history heavily influences his painting today, especially in the realm of color.
After a twenty-year hiatus from art, a chance encounter with a Cézanne self-portrait in Nashville inspired Logan to pick up a brush again. He selected oil paint as his medium because of its fluidity and malleability, often referring to his painting style as “carving” rather than painting.
Engaging Logan’s work is either an exercise in mysticism or quantum mechanics, depending on your bent. Go up close and experience the chaotic interplay of color and texture that plays out on the quantum level. Pull back and the artistic detail miraculously resolves into a recognizable pattern; the cosmos is familiar once more. Logan is still a resident Angeleno, living in our midst with his wife and two ebullient and boundlessly optimistic sons. We are thrilled to present him and his work as our first Art in the Arthouse showcase here at the brand new Laemmle Glendale.

For wait list information
They’re back! Our good friends from McCabe’s grace us once again with their musical gifts on Sunday, August 5. LAEMMLE LIVE presents McCabe’s Guitar Shop for a free pop-up celebration of all things guitar and other choice instruments. McCabe’s renowned teachers and students share their wit and wisdom with lively performances and demos. Hosted by Head of Music School Denny Croy at the Monica Film Center.
It began in 1958. Furniture designer Gerald McCabe repaired guitars for his folk-singer wife’s musician friends who had no local music store. Gerald and his friend Ed Kahn decided to open a small music shop on Pico Blvd in Santa Monica. They began repairing instruments, selling folk music books and records, carrying Mexican guitars and old banjos. Word spread and local musicians began hanging out, relishing one of the only guitar shops in the Southern California area. One of those young musicians was Bob Riskin. Bob started as an employee in 1960. In the early 60’s lessons and classes were added. In 1969 McCabe’s began presenting live concerts. Bob Riskin became sole owner in 1986. Bob and his wife Espie are still running McCabe’s today! Over the years, musicians from all aspects of the musical spectrum, from gifted amateurs to seasoned professionals, have come to appreciate McCabe’s friendly, knowledgeable sales staff, expert repair shop and world class teaching staff. Join us for memorable music from a local treasure!
