The Industry, a new experimental opera company, brings together over 50 artists from every discipline to create and inhabit the landscape of Crescent City. Anne LeBaron's raucous, electronica-infused hyperopera, featured twice in New York City Opera's VOX showcase of new American opera, springs to life in an industrial warehouse at Atwater Crossing. With a hurricane on the move, ghosts fleeing the city and a marauding band of revelers celebrating the end of the world, Crescent City verges on the edge of destruction. Will the voodoo priestess find the one good soul who will save it? Free guided tours of the Crescent City sets on Wednesdays and Saturdays from 12:00pm-6:00pm.

With a gala opening of the opera on Thursday, May 10, 2012, Crescent City will run for three weeks, Thursdays through Sundays, closing on May 27, 2012. Performances are at 8:00pm. On Friday, May 11th, The Industry will host an artists` reception on set, inviting guests to see the installations up close.

Co-op28 Gallery Presents Richard Thornsberry & CJ Mammarella
May 9 – May 26, 2012
Opening Reception: Saturday, May 12 from 6-9pm

Co-op 28 Gallery is pleased to presents Los Angeles artists Richard Thornsberry & CJ Mammarella. Both Mammarella and Thornsberry celebrate the figure and all its glory. These unrepentant portrait artists toy with what is beautiful, powerful, uncomfortable and acceptable. Their works share many common themes but each artist has a unique approach when rendering their subjects. Thornsberry’s style hits you with a realistic brutality that is unapologetic and confrontational while Mammarella’s creations are more quiet and contemplative. Join us in celebrating these two talented visionaries.

Located at 1728 N. Vermont Ave. in Los Feliz, Co-op 28 Gallery is the exhibition annex to Marci Siegel's boutique Co-op 28. We have revolving shows offering the work of local artists in a new atmosphere that's both inviting and relaxing.
