Barrio Logan, CA – The House of Elements, a new artist collective and gallery, opens its doors with Tha Illest Art Show. Tha Illest Art Show features some of San Diego’s premier street, graf and visual artists. With the recent hype of the Viva La Revolucion exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego, the artists in this exhibition focus on local talent and street art legacies. How do we engage artists in our own urban landscape and where do local artists fit in this dialogue? Tha Illest Art Show begins to address the need of exhibiting local talent and community artists in a broader context. The exhibition will include artists from Tijuana, San Diego, New York and Los Angeles. These artists have created new work on 9’ x 12’ canvases.

The House of Elements is a cooperative of artists and skilled craftsmen who are dedicated to creating a unique space and artist collective in the historic Barrio Logan district. The House of Elements will include a dance studio, a 1,500 sq ft. gallery, a recording studio and artists work space. The House of Elements is a multidisciplinary art space whose mission is to create a cross collaboration of artists and community.
