Out of the Ashes: Artists Impacted by the Los Angeles Wildfires

In the ongoing aftermath of one of the worst disasters in the history of Los Angeles, we seek to directly benefit the artists affected by the Eaton and Palisades Fires with an exhibition of their works, for which they will receive 100% of the proceeds.

This exhibition, Out of the Ashes, began as a direct fire relief effort, but quickly evolved into an opportunity for artists to share personal stories and responses to this unprecedented moment in our collective experience. Curated by Craig Krull and Douglas Marshall, the exhibition runs from February 19 to March 1. It includes work by over thirty L.A. artists, interpretive statements from each of them, and an artist talk moderated by Hannah Sloan on February 22, with an opening reception to follow.

Participating artists include Natalia Berglund, Elaine Carhartt, Kevin Cooley, Michael Deyermond, Brad Eberhard, Carol Erb, Liz Espinoza, Malado Francine, Michael Freitas Wood, James Griffith, Salomón Huerta, Beanie Kaman, Carol Kauffman, John Knuth, Augustine Kofie, Aline Mare, Kim McCarty, Kelly McDonald, Ana Morales, Gary Palmer, Laura Parker, Cleon Peterson, Phranc, Mary Anna Pomonis, Mark Posey, Rebeca Puga, Milo Reice, Nancy Romero, Delbar Shahbaz, Matthew Shallenberger, Joshua Simpson, Amy Smith, Coleen Sterritt, William Stranger, Gay Summer Rick, Jane Szabo, Camilla Taylor, Molly Tierney, Elizabeth Tremante, Dani Tull, Philip Vaughan, Yohannes Yamassee, and Eric Zammitt.

Out of the Ashes is an event of the Bergamot Tenants Association, with support from the City of Santa Monica, Rising Realty Partners, and Berman Art Projects.
