Founded in 2014, The Mistake Room occupies a renovated industrial warehouse at the edge of the Downtown Arts District in Los Angeles where it presents ambitious new work by an array of international artists, many of whom have never-before shown in LA. It operates under a multi-year, thematic curatorial framework that allows for rigorous investigation and in-depth artistic interrogation. Starting in 2019, it will undertake a 2-year program cycle of gallery exhibitions, public events and publications organized around the themes of memory and cultural identity, entitled Histories of a Vanishing Present.
The Mistake Room
Visual art and artists are at the center of our work. We believe in the intrinsic value of experimental artistic practice and promote artistic participation in cultural conversations at the highest level.
