In Souvenir, dozens of artist-produced items are presented in a simulated pop-up storefront. This group show, presented by the Nutty Club, includes postcards, pins, ceramic ware, coloring books, coasters, booklets, and other small works, all offered for sale. The cumulative experience of the show immediately references nearby tourist driven shops and their various California themes, while effectively coalescing in concepts of consumerism; grittiness and polish; contemporary culture, nostalgia, and kitsch.
