Are the art galleries in the Jordaan free?

Please help...I live in Los Angeles and would like to visit art constellations-Any ideas for galleries? Thanks

• I earned a B.A. in Liberal Studies with a concentration in Art. I would love to continue to visit art galleries with special focus on art constellations. I have no particular artist that I enjoy for I believe they are all exceptional in their own way. The art work created by random eveyday objects displayed in a 3D manner which occupies a room is unbelievable! Please help me with information of art galleries that display this type of art constellations. I would also appreciate any websites addresses that I could view for further imformation on this topic. If you happen to know of any future constellation exhibits please feel free to share that with me as welI. I would appreciate any and all ideas! Thank You. I live in Los Angeles but am willing to travel some distance to the art galleries.

• Answer:

  What is an art 'constellation?' I think what you are looking for is art 'installation', which refers to sculptural work that is meant to be viewed in a particular 'setting,' i.e. 'installed' in a space, as an 'installation.' I don't live in LA so I can't help you with galleries. But now that you know the right terminology, you can simply google the words "Los Angeles Art Galleries Installations" and I'm sure you'll come up with something. Most every gallery has a website where they list their current exhibitions. Just like any city, I'm sure LA has an area or neighborhood where galleries are clustered together. The best thing to do is locate this area, and just go there and walk around. Not all installations contain "random everyday objects" but if that's what you're into, you should check out the young artist Sarah Sze. She's an installation artist based out of NYC.
