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
“I love uniforms! Because if there’s nothing there, clothes are certainly not going to make the man. It’s better to always wear the same thing and know that people are liking you for the real you and not the you your clothes make.”
The Philosophy of Andy Warhol (From A to B & Back Again)
