UMA panel discusses Los Angeles abstract art

“Painterly,” a panel discussion of Los Angeles based artists Iva Gueorguieva, Steve Roden, and Ali Smith was held today at the University Art Museum at 5 p. m. discussing abstract paintings. 

Hosted by CSULB Art Department faculty members Linda Day, Tom Krumpak, and Marie Thibeault, the panel discussed abstract art, its manifestation on the east and west coast of the United States and its future in the 21st century. 

The event was inspired by the exhibition “Perpetual Motion: Michael Goldberg” hosted also in the UMA until Dec. 12.

Born in Bulgaria, panelist Iva Gueorguieva received her MFA at the Tyler School of Art in Philadelphia. Her latest exhibit was in Los Angles at Angles Gallery. Visual and sound artist Steve Roden’s current work can been seen at the Pasadena’s Center for the Arts and Pomona College Museum of Art’s exhibition, “when words become forms.”  The final panelist Ali Smith earned her MFA here at CSULB.
