Edward Cella Art & Architecture present a group exhibition entitled Golden Bird and features new and recent work by six women artists and includes Aura Kuperberg, Emily Silver, Kelly Brumfield-Woods, Megan Riera, Minna Philips, and Zeal Harris. Organized and curated by Carmen Acosta, Creative Director at SoFi Stadium and Hollywood Park, the exhibition is presented in collaboration with Inglewood Open Studios and aims to celebrate the artistic contributions of a small but exceptional group of women who are living or working in Inglewood, California today. The exhibition opens August 5 and runs through September 2 and is open Thursday to Saturday 11 am to 5 pm and by appointment.
Seeking to both engage the local communities of Inglewood and highlight the growing presence of this artists community to wider audiences across Southern California; the exhibition also amplifies and directly supports the ongoing efforts of Inglewood Open Studios (IOS) to foster and build a diverse, inclusive, and resilient community through the arts and artists. A portion of the sales of artwork sold during the exhibition will be donated to IOS to expand their year-round calendar of programs and events in the Inglewood community.
A Golden Bird is said to possess magical powers and a radiant brilliance. It serves as a symbol of transformation, resilience, and the boundless possibilities that come from embracing one’s true self. In the words of the curator Carmen Acosta, “Our intention is to create an inclusive and dynamic event that encourage women in our community, and I believe that their unique artistic styles, perspectives, and creative voices greatly enrich our community.” The exhibition features a range of painting and sculpture modalities and offers both material and formal contrast yet searches for intuitive connections between the six artists presented.
