Trulee Hall @truleehall 
Ladies’ Lair Lake Premier Screening & Live Performance
@calartsredcat 

LAND, @outfest PLATINUM, @LACMA and @rusha_co present the premiere screening and live musical performance of Ladies’ Lair Lake, a feature-length musical film from artist Trulee Hall

Ladies’ Lair Lake, reflects Hall’s feminist-oriented and richly imaginative art practice. With 16 original songs over the course of 55 minutes, Hall immerses viewers in her mythical, choral, and playful world. Ladies’ Lair Lake narrates a creation myth that begins not with man but with woman, and explores themes of disobedience and loss of innocence; the clash between patriarchal religion and matriarchal goddess worship; the complexities and loss of autonomy that accompany motherhood; and the interplay of free will and fate, of human desire and divine intervention. The mythological narrative takes place in an edenic forest setting, beside a lake inhabited by a sorority of nymphs overseen by a benevolent yet mischievous goddess. The sisterhood, chameleon-like and at-one with their surroundings, coexists in harmony with nature, adopting the characteristics and appearance of water, land, and flora.

In 2022, LAND presented Ladies’ Lair Lake as a multimedia exhibition, the most expansive presentation of Hall’s body of work to date. The exhibition invited viewers to immerse themselves in Hall’s universe, brought to life through video, sculpture, painting, sound and installation. The Ladies’ Lair Lake film is in the process of being acquired by LACMA. 

RSVP at the link in our bio and make sure to visit Trulee Hall's solo exhibition Plays on Foreplays, opening this Saturday, February 4th at Rusha & Co.⁠

This presentation is made possible by Stacy & John Rubeli. Special thanks to @maccaronegallery

Instagram post 17889218792712896 LAND is honored to announce Mohn LAND Grants, a new and ambitious initiative to introduce, and invest in, emerging Los Angeles artists, providing them with a platform to present site-responsive, transdisciplinary work across Los Angeles County and to serve as a first formal public presentation. Over a five year cycle, up to 20 artists will receive Mohn LAND Grants to realize intentional and community-focused public projects ranging from large-scale sculpture commissions to street level interventions. Mohn LAND Grants was developed in collaboration with art collectors and philanthropists Jarl and Pamela Mohn, who are committed to supporting emerging L.A. artists. The initiative reflects LAND’s mission to empower artists to have autonomy over the presentation of their work and in more direct relationship with the public.⁠
⁠
The inaugural recipients are Maria Maea @maeamaria, Felix Quintana @felixfquintana, Jackie Amézquita @jackieamezquita, and Star Feliz @priestusssy. This inaugural cohort of Mohn LAND Grant recipients produce outstanding, socially concerned, transdisciplinary work addressing issues such as extraction and exploitation of natural resources to narratives of migration and oppression of gendered and racialized peoples.⁠

Instagram post 17950887632444101 LAND, @theboxla, and @hauserwirthlosangeles present Paul McCarthy WS White Snow, the artist’s largest single work presented in the US, originally exhibited at the Park Avenue Armory (New York) in 2013, from February 16 - 19, 2023.⁠
⁠
Like many of LA’s legendary secrets, WS White Snow has been hidden in plain sight for the past decade: an 8,800-square-foot artificial forest and a faithful replica of the artist’s family home have stood fully installed in a warehouse in East LA. The accompanying 7 hour four-channel video projection, edited by Damon McCarthy and taken from 350 hours of recorded video from the 30 days of performance in 2012/13 will be projected alongside the installation. This will be the first and possibly only time audiences in Los Angeles will be able to experience the work in situ, with the future of the work uncertain.

Read more and reserve free tickets to experience WS White Snow at the link in our bio. #paulmccarthy #whitesnow
