Bettina Hubby: 8th + Hope + Hubby
8th + Hope + Hubby was an installation from Los Angeles artist and art producer Bettina Hubby. This project launched The Ground Floor Project at 8th + Hope, an arts and culture initiative at the new apartment rental community located in downtown Los Angeles. Side Street Projects is proud to be a part of a new initiative that allowed more socially engaged artists paying exhibition opportunities.
The show opened Friday, September 5, 2014, with a reception from 6:00pm-9:00pm, and ran through September 30, 2014. Bridging the past, present and future of the new building at 8th + Hope, Hubby brought her signature style to The Ground Floor Project, curating a group show honoring the construction of the site and the workers who built it. Featuring a collection of interactive art pieces and site-specific installations, the show offered art from 10 Los Angeles-based artists, including Suzanne Adelman, Chad Attie, Joshua Callaghan, Alice Clements, Omar Lopex, Rory Mitchell, Steven Rimlinger, Mike Slack, Keith Walsh, and Karen LofgrenAbout 8th + Hope:
