THE VERSUS PROJECT IV: LAYER CAKE
1331 W Sunset Blvd., Los Angeles, CA 90026
Saturday, September 16 at 6:00 PM 10:00 PM
Ends Oct 28, 2023
Subliminal Projects is pleased to present The Versus Project IV, an international traveling group exhibition co-curated by the German artist duo Layer Cake, that challenges the well-known Graffiti rule: never paint over other writers, by inviting the broader graffiti and street art community to do just that. The collaborative work results in layers of each artist's contribution that both blend and highlight their personal styles. After two well-received exhibitions at Urban Nation Museum for Urban Contemporary Art (UN) in Berlin in 2019 and 2022, and at the Museum of Graffiti in Miami earlier this year, The Versus Project makes its fourth stop at Subliminal Projects, continuing this experiment with the addition of new artists to the exhibition including gallery owner, artist Shepard Fairey. Join us Saturday, September 16th, 6-7 PM for the Opening Reception. To kick off the reception the gallery will host a special Artist Talk at 6:15 PM with Layer Cake, featuring contributing artists Shepard Fairey and Chaz Bojórquez moderated by Steven P. Harrington co-founder of Brooklyn Street Art. RSVP to rsvp@subliminalprojects.com to attend.
