We took the long, one block hike from the Underbelly Project preview to check out all the murals of Wynwood Walls, which were nicely lit for those who wanted to take some night shots. Ryan McGinness, Retna, Date Farmers, How and Nosm, Interesni Kazki, Saner, Jeff Soto, Shepard Fairey, and huge roster of others all have murals in the Wynwood area.

Last weekend, we attended the opening of the Date Farmers' show at Ace Gallery Los Angeles. Today, we have an exclusive feature essay on the exhibition and the works themselves, written by contributing author Susie Lee. Read the piece after the jump . . .

The Date Farmers solo exhibit opened in Los Angeles this weekend. Photos and more after the jump…
