As part of Arts Month, Artist Yvette Gellis, (@yvettegellis) paints a 400-foot long mural entitled, “Sacred Spaces,” in front of the Annenberg Community Beach House, Tuesday, April 20, 2021. The artist will be painting onsite periodically through April 21st. The completed mural will be on view through the summer.
Born and raised in the Chicago area, Yvette Gellis' contemplation of the vast open terrain in contrast to the urban sprawl set up structures for her painting that echo or reiterate the impermanent and mutable states depicted in her work. She has exhibited nationally and internationally including the Pasadena Museum of California Art, the Landesgalerie Museum for Modern and Contemporary Art in Linz, Austria, St. Jacques Eglise in Dival, France, and the 18th Street Arts Center, Santa Monica.
