Cultured presents Anderson Ranch Arts Center’s second annual “Inside My Studio” summer series. Directed and produced by Dennis Scholl, the series features nine artists as they paint intimate portraits of their life and studio. The sixth installation of this year’s series features Los Angeles-based artist Alex Israel. Tucked in the back lot of Warner Bros, Israel finds himself in a space that became available at the unraveling of the scenic art department upon the advent of giant printers. Referring to it as “the studio” as opposed to “my studio,” he explains the metaphysical stardust that exists on the Warner Bros lot and how it fuels his imagination beyond anything he thought possible.
