DASH MANLEY




A friend, Laurie Firstenberg, one of LA's best art curator's told me about a artist name Dashiell Manley.

Dashiell Manley was born and raised in California. Mr. Manley got his BFA at Cal Arts and his MFA at UCLA in 2011. He doesn't have representation either which makes him a bit more mysterious as well. His work is fresh, unique and he is going to have a big year.

His works will be at LA HAMMER in conjunction with LAX art coming June 2, Lord Reynolds Gallery in Austin, and the Silverman Gallery in SF.

I personally love the double sides pieces he's recently been working on. The pieces can be flipped around for another totally different interpretation of what he's trying to show.

He is fresh out of school and already one of the most intriguing young artists in the LA Art scene. IF your an editor, this is a good find for you to do a piece on. He's young, talented, and has the world at his oyster.

I shot his portrait yesterday. Pretty easy on the eyes as well.
