Abelardo Morell: The Universe Next DoorAbelardo Morell's The Universe Next Door exhibit at The Getty Center displays his interpretation of camera obscura, which means "a darkened chamber room." He projects images into a room, where he says he wants "the idea of things that don't usually get invited to be in the same room [to be] invited through my art." Whether it's a dreamlike city landscape projected onto the background of a bed or an eerie, nostalgiac image creeping behind a dollhouse, photographers and perhaps cinematic enthusiasts should be inspired in this new art form, since Morrell even says, "It has never been done."

Room to LiveEerie, beautiful, gigantic, sexy - these are a few words that describe the plethora of artwork in the Room to Live exhibit at MOCA. Collecting works from several artists all dated from the 1960s until now,Room to Live displays work from diverse media usage, including sculptures, paintings, drawings, photography, video and room-sized installations. You can walk into a clown funeral in Marnie Weber's "A Giggle of Clowns" and continue on to view a 3D installation at Samara Golden's "The Fireplace." See if you can feel the heat from the fluorescent lights in Mark Handforth's "Desert Sun." With a wide variety of installations, artwork, and artists, you can spend your entire day at MOCA finding a room to live in.
