PLEASE JOIN US FOR NELA SECOND SATURDAY ART GALLERY NIGHT

SATURDAY JULY 11, 2015,  7:00PM - 10:00PM

@ BOB TAYLOR PROPERTIES, 5526 N. FIGUEROA ST., HIGHLAND PARK, CA 90042

 

The SECOND SATURDAY of every month is ART GALLERY NIGHT in NORTHEAST LOS ANGELES. Galleries, artist studios, businesses, shops and restaurants open their doors as the streets fill with shoppers, diners, patrons and interested pedestrians.  

 

Bob Taylor Properties is proud to celebrate NELA's thriving art community by opening our doors  each month to host a POP-UP ART GALLERY displaying work by some of our neighborhood's most talented and creative artists..

  

For July, we are holding over our exhibit of amazing museum pieces by internationally recognized artist Rafael Matias. Matias is best known for his large scale surrealistic mosaic paintings in beads, glass tiles, and sculptures. 

  

Also on exhibit: Jessica Ayala, Miriam Jackson and whimsical custom jewelry handmade by Lilian Mercado. 

 

And we are pleased to host great live music out on the sidewalk. The Carlos Guitarlos Trio delivers Blues, Rhythm & Blues, Americana and Rockin' Roots brought forth from a lifetime of experience and hard living.

 

 

Los Angeles Times describes Carlos Guitarlos : ". . .The technique is unmistakably sophisticated: chords and melody played simultaneously, the way Chet Atkins might have done. An old gravelly blues voice, perfectly cracked, effortlessly in tune, pours from the slumped singer. The truthfulness of the voice commands you to listen. . ."

 

LA Weekly says: "If you're going to name yourself Carlos Guitarlos, you'd better make sure you're a damned good guitarist. So good, in fact, that you can play anywhere, out on the streets or in a fancy concert hall, with the uncanny ability to pull from memory just about any blues-rock classic and, on top of that, play it in a style that's uniquely your own. And then, somehow, you should also be so good that you can write and sing dozens of your own originals, in all manner of genres, from bewitchingly sad ballads and deft Beatles-like pop structures to ragingly dirty blues and Latin soul. --Falling James"
