Islands of LA was conceived of as an art project that utilizes the marginalized yet highly visible public spaces of traffic islands. Islands of LA views the traffic islands as everyday spaces and venues that can be used by artists to create community and stimulate inquisitive interchanges about a variety of topics including public land use. The project began on 9/16/07 and was conceived of by artist Ari Kletzky.
Islands of LA projects are in different areas of the public sphere including public space, private space and online. Most of the projects cross one or more of these areas.
Please email Islands of LA if you are interested in collaborating, would like to be a guest curator, or if you would like more information. You can also post an idea on the blog.
Having a good discussion is like having riches.
