Expanding the Boundaries. An Inaugural Group Exhibition
Pasadena, CA - The boundaries of the Los Angeles art gallery scene are expanding as one of L.A.鈥檚 longest established gallery opens its inaugural exhibition in Pasadena, CA with a Sunday reception on March 12 from 3:00 to 6:00 p.m.
Jack Rutberg Fine Arts, formerly located on La Brea Avenue in Los Angeles for more than 37 years, will present an exhibition appropriately titled 鈥淓xpanding the Boundaries鈥 at its new Pasadena location at 600 South Lake Avenue.
While international headlines continually trumpet the news that major East Coast and European galleries are moving to the L.A. and Hollywood region, it is notable that one of L.A.鈥檚 most venerated galleries is moving in another direction.
The Rutberg gallery early pioneered L.A.鈥檚 mid-Wilshire/Hollywood gallery scene in 1981 at a location not known for art galleries though mere blocks from the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, propelling the boom to follow, housing more than 30 art galleries. There, the gallery was known for major museum quality exhibitions catering to both seasoned and beginning art collectors as well as museum curators. Its cultural programs included lectures by major art historians, artists, and a music series.
