Description - Made in L.A. 2020: A Version by Myriam Ben Salah

Now in its fifth iteration, Made in L.A. brings together established, under-recognised, and emerging artists, each of whom is contributing to L.A.'s vibrant art scene. Since its inception in 2012, the Hammer Museum's "Made in L.A." has brought together local artists from a variety of disciplines. Under the direction of co-curators Myriam Ben Salah and Lauren Mackler and with the help of Ikechukwu Onyewuenyi, the 2020 iteration will be no exception. This book spans sculpture, painting, installation, film and video, music, and performance pieces, many of which have been specifically commissioned for the exhibition. It features artists and their work, along with texts about the diverse practices, backgrounds, and approaches that make the L.A. art scene a cornucopia of cultures, experiences, and styles. It also includes interviews that explore the city's various artistic communities and the latest preoccupations and inspirations driving artists' work today. Essays by the curators and many of the artists round out this volume. AUTHORS: Myriam Ben Salah is a Tunisian-French curator and writer based in Paris.
