If you’re in LA, the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium (pictured above) is where you should be headed tonight, January 13, for the opening of photo l.a. / artLA projects!
Tonight’s reception (6-9pm) is a benefit for the Wallis Annenberg Photography Department at LACMA and is hosted by David LaChapelle and Chris Lowell.
tasj is proud to be a media partner for this event, and unlike Art Stage Singapore (fantastic preview shots here), we will actually be in attendance to man our booth! You can’t miss us - we are right at the entrance, next to The New York Times, and our booth is decorated with some lovely Boogie photographs.
Come say hello if you can! We went by to set up last night and Simmy Swinder and the rest of the team were working very hard on the final event touches. I’m looking forward to going back over in a bit. There are 50+ galleries taking part, plus Phaidon (our other neighbor) has a ton of great photo books in their booth that I desperately want copies of.
The fair runs through January 17, 2011. More information here.

The first edition of Art Stage Singapore opens today, January 12! Unfortunately, Seth and I couldn’t make it over, but the current issue of tasj did! Pick up a copy at M10, our designated booth, then wander through the booths of the 100+ participating galleries, which include 10 Chancery Lane (Hong Kong), Galerie Emmanuel Perrotin (Paris), Tomio Koyama Gallery (Tokyo/Kyoto), Ullens Center for Contemporary Art (Beijing), Arario Gallery (various locations), Asia Art Center (Beijing/Taipei) and Collectors Contemporary (Singapore).
As you can see from the set up photos above, Takashi Murakami, Aya Takano and KAWS are just some of the many artists visitors will encounter at Marina Bay Sands during January 12-16, 2011. tasj is proud to support what looks to be a great new fair and wish its organizers a smooth and successful year one.
