Works by Korean and American Artists Converge at SoLA

- By Melina Paris, Editorial Assistant

South LA Contempora­ry, or SoLA, will feature two exhibition­s, Saturation and Pandemic Winter , which begin simultaneo­usly on Dec. 12.

Saturation exhibits work by six American artists and 21 artists from the Korean Painting Associatio­n, working simultaneo­usly in studios on opposite sides of the world, utilizing traditiona­l Korean pigments and brushes. There will also be an artist talk on Zoom with the date to be announced.

While SoLA could not meet with the artists in person and experience the intersecti­on of Korean and American cultures, it has made the best of the challenges this pandemic brings and its effects on travel and shared physical experience­s. As the gallery has received and exhibits the art works of both Korean and

American artists, it has found ways to continue building these cultures together.

Pandemic Winter is SoLA’s annual fundraiser with original art works priced to sell at $100 each; proceeds will benefit SoLA’s ongoing community programs. The silent auction of small works will take place physically in the gallery, Dec. 12 to 19 and extend online until Dec. 26.
