+ First Malibu Annual Contemporary Fair @ Malibu Country Mart 3835 Cross Creek Rd. Malibu, CA 90265. Friday 7-10 pm, Sat 12-8 pm, Sun 12-6 pm.
Seven Los Angeles-based contemporary art galleries spread their wings and cruise with the Malibu seagulls for the inaugural edition of a three-day art fair highlighting LA. Buzz galleries China Art Objects, Chung King Project, Circus Gallery, The Company, Eighth Veil, Parker Jones, and *sister will be participating, showing the work of more than 40 national and international artists. Ditching the trade-fair convention center booth-maze vibe in favor of a return to the quirkier days of hotel fairs, the galleries occupy classrooms and other curious spaces at the former high school, Malibu Country Mart. As an added bonus, the fair includes specially-made site-responsive works, performances, and video installations. – Alexx Shaw
