THIS Los Angeles.


via Dazed Digital - When the six artists behind the newly founded THIS Los Angeles gallery space launched their inaugural show in February this year they decided to open with a rather large bang. Inviting over 100 artists mates, including Geoff McFetridge, Maya Hayuk, Jim Houser, Alex Prager, Estevan Oriol, Jason Lee and Andy Jenkins, the Highland Park-based community/performance/art space kicked off with creative aplomb.
