High Energy Constructs by Ami Kealoha
High Energy Constructs, the latest gallery in Los Angeles' Chinatown, opens tomorrow 18 February, 2006 with a solo show by Colorado-born artist David Brady, 27. The exhibition, called "Max Jewel," is a series of sculptures made with hardware-store materials like wood, plaster, and metal and, for a gallery named after the poet Charles Olson's cry for high energy in art, the inauguration seems fitting. Closes 26 March, 2006.

Wangechi Mutu
Wangechi Mutu’s new show “Little Touched” at Susanne Vielmetter Los Angeles Projects is so complete and polished that it feels more like walking into a museum than a gallery. Originally from Kenya, Mutu’s work focuses on the constant exploration and discovery of identity as a woman, immigrant and African in New York City. Known for her lyric collages like “A’gave you” (pictured right), this...

Dan Flavin: Dedications
A couple of weeks ago, Ami mentioned the new Flavin-like light installation, which the gallery has also put online. Like looking at the original works, playing around with the colored beams yourself is strangely relaxing. Contributed by SummerSeventySix...

Arigato Gaijin
Repetition of plastic objects seems to be a recurring theme lately. The most recent incarnation can be seen at the new show opening at Raid Projects in LA this weekend. Arigato Gaijin, which translates to thank you, foreigners, features the work of 5 young and emerging Japanese artists. Of particular interest are these two pieces from Tomoaki Sato (right) Akira Shikiya (left). Where Sato...

Arne Svenson "Portraits"
If you're in Los Angeles try and catch Portraits, the new work of photographer Arne Svenson at Western Project gallery. Svenson spent three years researching and photographing forensic facial reconstruction sculptures. The images are attempts at reconstructing identities; when you look at them it's hard not to think about the people they represent, their lives, and what terrible fate they met. The show closes...

Dreamland Artist Club 2005
I first became an ESPO (aka Steve Powers) fan a few years back when he roller-brushed over graffiti with his own tag during an undercover stint with LA's graffitti removal team. His next-level street art and candyland aesthetic (check out the bakery he staged at Deitch's Armory booth earlier this year) came together perfectly with his Dreamland Artist Club 2004. This year's version of...
