Chris Anthony In Culver City

Culver City's new shows are a pure treat, especially Chris Anthony's pseudo-vintage photographs @ Corey Helford. A powerful series of dark, fantastical scenes staged with papier maché, mannequins, fabric, and family memorabilia, shot through 19th Century lenses.
Also noted:
- The fabulous de la Torre brothers & Koplin del Rio
- Corina Gamma décalée photography @ d.e.n.
- Anjelika Trojnarski's angst @ Kingsey/Desforges
- Chloe Piene's sublime drawings @ Sandroni Rey
- Anthony Goicolea, also @ Sandroni Rey
- Raina Gentry @ The Whole 9
- Bonita Helmer & @ Susan Jane Belton @ George Billis
- Scoli Acosta's installation @ LAXART
- Malaika Zweig @ JK
