LA LA from LA LA Land
By Kim Hastreiter
Here I am in L.A. and the PAPER Project is heating up. I haven't had a moment to breathe in the chilly grey air as I've been so swamped. I arrived Saturday night and drove straight from the airport to my good friend Karen Kimmel's studio where she was having an opening for a show of her work she put up. It was such a gorgeous show. She is a genius. I saw so many friends there -- from expat Audrey Bernstein to my favorite new friend Barbara Bestor (the architect who has done an amazing installation/design for our storefront space), to filmmaker Cheryl Dunn (who is in L.A. for our PAPER Project and the guitar shred-off we are doing Thursday night at the Roxy), to Karen's cute hubby James Bond, who owns the supersneakerstores Undefeated.
I was most excited to meet Geoff McFetridge, an artist I have always been a huge fan of. His studio was also in this kooky neighborhood that I'd never been to called Atwater behind Silverlake. Very cute locale. Like being in Mexico. I must say, I love L.A. There are all these different neighborhoods and the artists just keep pushing further and further out as things gentrify. I hear there's now a big scene in Long Beach and as far east as Highland Park and Eagle Rock are rocking out with cute little bars, restaurants and shops.
