Shape + Form - Descanso Gardens

Shape and form are two of the basic elements of art. Using creativity, an artist can transform simple shapes and forms into a profound work of art. The Sturt Haaga Gallery has invited artists to submit their masterpieces to Shape+Form, an open juried competition and exhibition. Approximately 200 artworks will be on view at the Sturt Haaga Gallery Oct. 28–Jan. 28. Artists Kaz Kitajima and Luna Ikuta have also been invited to display their work as part of Shape+Form. An exhibit by Kaz Kitajima celebrates more than 50 years in landscape design as well as his work as a Sogetsu ikebana master. Mr. Kitajima is a renowned practitioner and teacher at Ikebana Sogetsu Los Angeles. His arrangements of shape and form can be seen in Descanso Gardens during the month of October each year.
