If you know much of anything about the art scene in Los Angeles, you’ve surely been to Thinkspace gallery. Located in LA’s artsy Silverlake neighborhood, Thinkspace is owned and run by husband and wife team Andrew and Shawn Hosner, with Cannibal Flower producer L Croskey.
Unafraid to test out something new, Thinkspace is constantly pushing boundaries and exposing new and exciting artists that often go on to exhibit internationally, while maintaining ties to the gallery that helped them start it all. This is not to say Thinkspace only showcases emerging talent, as a quick look at their roster proves Thinkspace has their proverbial finger directly on the pulse of contemporary art.
In their typically generous fashion, Thinkspace has donated not one or two but a whopping 11 pieces of beautiful artwork to our 15th Anniversary Art Auction. Catch a look at pieces by Anthony Clarkson, Cherri Wood, Craig 'Skibs' Barker, Dan-Ah Kim, and Tran Nguyen now.
