The Main Gallery at Avenue 50 studio presents:

Elegy to the 6th Street Bridge

Renown Chicano artist Roberto Gutierrez latest series is an abstract deconstruction of a major architectural artery connecting the East LA region to Central City (DTLA), the 83 year old 6th Street bridge (which is scheduled for demolition). A departure from his past work, “Elegy” is part catharsis and equal part swan song of an inanimate object that despite its non-organic state, teemed with life and it’s own civic memory which was projected unto recipients such as Gutierrez.
