Street Schooled, curated by Man One, is an exhibition highlighting the work of LA based artists whose works are inspired in one way or another by the streets of LA. Emerging artists are sharing the gallery walls with several established creators by whom they’ve personally been influenced. These more mature masters of their craft have also influenced countless young painters, graffiti artists and muralists throughout the city over the last few decades. They are respected as street mentors by many. The exhibition aspires to showcase the surfacing talent of these emerging artists while giving flowers to the living maestros that came before them.

“For Street Schooled, I felt it would be interesting to select young and emerging local LA artists to showcase alongside some of their artistic heroes. Most of these younger artists have never met the established artists but have been inspired by them for years on the LA streets. This is an opportunity for them to literally meet each other and for the viewer to to get a glimpse into what artists appreciate about each other when creating new work.” – Man One
