R.B. Stevenson Gallery is pleased to present a group exhibition "Alphabet Soup" featuring new and current paintings by the gallery artists and introducing Mexican artist Laura Ortiz Vega. The exhibition opens with a reception on Saturday, December 9, from 5 to 8 pm.

Some Kind of Nature is the title of the ninth track on the British virtual band Gorillaz’ 2010 album “Plastic Beach,” and the point of departure for this gathering of artists from across the United States, Canada and Europe. As we have entered the Anthropocene, with human impacts being the dominant force of our changing climate, this exhibition presents the role artists can play in having conversations about how humans are affecting planetary species survival for generations to come.

Over the past 25 years OMA has presented over 300 diverse and engaging exhibitions. Legacy: 25 Years of Art and Community is a survey of 71 exhibitions and features 130 works of art by 112 different artists that speaks to the extensive variety of artistic expressions the museum has presented over the past quarter century. From California Impressionism as seen in (2008) to Surrealism found in  (2019), each one of OMA’s exhibitions reflects its mission to explore the art and stories of Southern California artists.
