The 35 Year Anniversary Show
In conjunction with the 20 year anniversary of Bergamot Station Arts Center
ROBERT BERMAN GALLERY is pleased to present The 35 Year Anniversary Show, celebrating our 35 years of showing contemporary and modern art in all mediums. To commemorate this anniversary, we will be exhibiting throughout the fall a four month, rotating sampling of artists and artworks which we have presented at one of our seven different locations, throughout our 35 years in business in Santa Monica.
From our first solo artist exhibition with local artist Zox in 1979, through to our most recent summer 2014 exhibition of photographer Murray Garrett, we will be presenting samplings of some very well known artists such as: Keith Haring, Raymond Pettibon, Cameron Jamie, Daniel Joseph Martinez, Bill Barminski, Alex Prager and Shepard Fairey.
Starting in the1980’s, ROBERT BERMAN GALLERY was one of the first galleries in Los Angeles to exhibit, in mass, Chicano street artists and muralists. Presently exhibiting with the gallery and will be a featured artist in our 35 Year Anniversary Exhibition is chicano muralist and painter John Valadez. Valadez will also be our premier artist for our January 2015 exhibition.
