In Gallery I, Evan B. Harris 'Maritime and Mythology' plays with nostalgia for his sailor grandfather's fantastical yarns, which have haunted the artist's dreams since childhood. Each of Harris's large-scale paintings is, in its own way, a vessel for the subconscious, lent with the eerie power of phantoms and filled with treasures straight out of the artist's youthful fantasies of foreign ports and being lost at sea.

A group show 'Gifted' opens in Gallery II with small works from over 30 artists including: Blaine Fontana, Yoskay Yamamoto, Eric Fortune, Hellovon, Jennifer Davis, Scott Belcastro, Justin Gibbens, Meggs, Melissa Haslam, Tessar Lo, Tofer Chin, Jack Long, Edwin Ushiro and more...

In our Project Room, new work from Catherine Ryan which investigate the relationships that exist between humans and animals and the tension created when wild creatures are viewed in close proximity with mankind.

Opening Reception: Friday, December 12th 7-10pm

LeBasse Projects presents "Future Perfect"
a solo exhibition by Tessar Lo
April 11th – May 2nd
Opening Reception: Saturday, April 11th, 7-10p

Los Angeles, CA – LeBasse Projects is proud to announce "Future Perfect," the first solo exhibition from artist Tessar Lo.

Lo developed his first solo show around the idea that the future is completely unforeseeable. Only in our dreams can the future be a utopia, and while anything is ultimately possible, the reality is we do not know where we will find ourselves.

Lo’s paintings often depict these ideas and emotions he cannot easily express in words. While on the surface Lo’s work often has the feel of an intimate storybook, upon closer inspection we see a deep sense of vulnerability and loneliness. The paintings for his solo exhibition continue to develop these feelings as he states his desire to be an island - alone, not needing to rely or respond to anyone but himself. The series of paintings are also larger in scale than anything Lo has worked on before, partly directed from his fear of being a merely decorative artist and partly from his increased confidence in his craft.

The unique emotion and techniques that make up Lo’s work have turned him into one of the most buzz-worthy emerging artists working today. With shows booked into 2010 from London to Los Angeles and appearances at Art Basel Miami and in NY on the horizon expect Lo’s first solo exhibition to be a significant step in what will undoubtedly by a significant career.
