Thanks Google... more about Wondeland Gallery

People living in L.A or visited don't need to keep reading.

Wonderland Gallery is the new platform for Kat von D and it's gonna be open right next to High Voltage Tattoo Shop, on the corner.

What kind of business the previous local was? Unsurprisingly, an art gallery too.

If you ever visited the shop or live in L.A, there's no "spoiler" for you in this post :)

It was called Carmichael Gallery and opened in August 2007, same year than HVT.
This Gallery of Contemporary Art moved to 5975 Washington Blvd recently.
The previous adress  from La Brea appears in promos for exhibitions from July, this year.
Take a look to past shows  or artists and you'll discover really interesting artworks. 

 I'd like to know if the idea of starting this new project began when the owners moved or earlier.


Nothing has been said about the direction of the project but the Opening Exhibition, by Kevin Llewellyn. He is noticed  for his realistic and obscure works. He has painted NIN, Jeffree Star, Nikki Sixx, Karoline von Drachenberg and Kat von D. So, the circle is completed.

I bet Michael Hussar is probably the next candidate to show there. Because of admiration towards him and beacuse of his book, A Decade, that is going to be released by fall in november. If he's not there, I'm sure it's not because Kat hasn't beg for .

All by now, hope you've enjoyed the reseach.

You have seen this painting on HVT walls
