‘PARAL•LEL’, the first solo exhibition in Los Angeles by Spanish muralist and artist, ARYZ, opened April 25th 2015 with hundreds of visitors who came see his new body of work. With two complimentary parallel rooms that span over 2000 square feet, the show reflects on the definition of “PARAL•LEL” as a mathematical notion in differential geometry where two parallel geodesic lines never meet in the same plane, but intersect at infinity. 

 In addition to the sold out exhibition, ARYZ will be releasing a special giclée print Friday, May 8th at 12PM (PST) at parallel-losangeles.com. Titled, ‘Interludio’ the print is of one of the largest paintings currently exhibited at the show.

 PARAL•LEL will remain open until May 31st by appointment only and appointments to see the exhibition can be made at the event website at parallel-losangeles.com.

‘PARAL•LEL’, the first exhibition in Los Angeles by Spanish muralist Aryz opened Saturday, April 25th. Set in a downtown building with two parallel gallery spaces, the complimentary collections showcase classic Aryz skulls and paintings that translate his large-scale murals onto canvas. The original work is intended to reflect the contradictions the artist faces in creating work for both public and interior spaces.
