Artists, designers, architects, writers, and performers new and old have continued to make extensive and impressive work in the area. The summer event in part acts as a cultural reminder that the post-industrial downtown never stopped producing. The district also hosts internationally well-known graffiti walls that draw many visitors on a daily basis.
The self-guided tour will include lofts (821 Traction Ave; the Toy Factory and more), private galleries as Tarryn & Theresa Gallery and ADC Gallery and many of the areas well-known restaurants as Metropol, Zip Fusion, e3rd and Wurstkuche. Bordered by Alameda on the west, the Los Angeles River on the east, Temple on the North and 7th Street on the South, the parameters are contiguous enough that a he shuttles will make rounds on the quarter-hour.
The tours will coincide with Bloomfest which will be held at Bloom Square from noon to midnight for free. For vendor booth info and participation in the tour please e-mail bloomfestla@gmail.com or bloomfestla.com Sponsoring support from DTLAX Magazine, YELP and isgoodmusic.com

Art show/Warehouse Party of the Summer = Boys Of Summer III: New Empire
Posted on: August 3, 2010 by: GRN

PART ONE:
Raid Projects is pleased to present New Empire, a group exhibition featuring work by Mark Batongmalaque, Ryan Perez, Conrad Ruiz, Kristofferson San Pablo, Emilio Santoyo and Ashkahn Shahparnia on view from August 13 – 19.
Opening reception: August 14th, 6 – 10pm, After party/event: 10-2am.
Spanning across a broad range of media, from painting to installation, New Empire draws from the idioms of hyped popular culture, to create works that are both visually ecstatic and politically engaged. Eschewing the cliché of teenage rebellion, the assembled works explore the vast indeterminate space of summertime leisure, exploring its iconography, fantasies, and socio-economic formations. Along with themes of listlessness and recklessness, the artists also scrutinize questions of class, masculinity and privilege, key issues that shape the de-centralized sprawl of the Los Angeles area.
The collected works range from the photo based abstractions of Ryan Perez to Conrad Ruiz’s large scale water color paintings inspired by Hollywood disaster movies and video games, as well as a site specific-sculptural installation by Ashkahn Shahparnia.
This is the third exhibition from the Boys of Summer, a Los Angeles based collective of artists mining the ongoing currency of media culture.
(In addition, there will be a special performance TBA, guest DJs The Fell Apart Team (Jan Tumlir), John Henry and lots and lots and lots of free booze!)
—————————————————————-
PART TWO: The afterparty/event will be located at the GRN Apple Tree warehouse nearby: 2424 E. Porter Ave. Los Angeles, CA. A very special installation/environment/performance by the Boys of Summer as well as a special performance/set by Christopher M. Alfaro, DJ Suckapunch, The Bings, and more TBA.
Keep checking for updates, cuz this is gonna be CRRRAAZZYY!!!
