TRADITION PRESENTS: MEAR & YEM :CRITICAL: THIS SATURDAY!


Tradition is proud to present :Critical: a 2 person art show featuring the artwork of Mear and Yem, two of LA's most prolific graffiti writers. :Critical: examines the nature of these two legendary graffiti writers and their approach to fine art.

MEAR ONE: examines the aspects of content that accompany any piece of art. He is literally working on communicating some of what we as a society have forgotten or are unable to see.


YEM: navigates through a multi-media platform where information (data) and art intersect. The result is a visual experiment that tests the icons of the culture industry. His work involves a participation in which Theodor Adorno claims that it goes under the name of terror in mass culture. He is a pioneer of the Los Angeles graffiti/urban art movement and has shown through out the US and Europe. He is self taught.

:Critical: opens November 7th, and runs through January 2nd.
Opening Reception is November 7th from 7-11. Drinks and music provided.

VIDEO: YEM - ALL MEDIA SOVEREIGN


Yem navigates through a multi-media platform where information (data) and art intersect. The result is a visual experiment that tests the icons of the culture industry. His work involves a participation in which Theodor Adorno claims that it goes under the name of terror in mass culture. You can expect to find Yem's 'results' through out the appropriation of abandoned public space- that emerge within a city streets of Europe and the Americas.
