About Above &amp; Below: Views from AltaSea's Blue HourAltaSea at the Port of Los Angeles is an ocean research and innovation institute which broke ground in 2017 at the historic warehouse berths. The volunteers and staff educate through art and science about our relationship to the ocean and its importance to the health and future of the planet. In November 2022, AltaSea’s Executive Vice President and COO, Jenny Krusoe, invited renowned artist Kim Abeles to curate an exhibition for the 2023 Blue Hour, a yearly fundraiser for educational programming focused on youth and community.Abeles spent the next nine months getting to know the place and the people, making studio visits or conversations, and constructing the narrative to create a sense of immediate possibility for guests visiting AltaSea. The title for the exhibit, “Above and Below”, addresses the connection between community and the sea; referencing the land and sky as well as the sea’s surface and below. Human interaction is visible in all those locations, and each affects the other.The exhibition was installed in 20,000 square feet of Berth 57, and on October 14, 2023, opened with the fundraising event. Twenty-three artists exhibited large-scale works featuring installation, ceramics, glass, video, photography, sound, and painting. The installation, “Above and Below Culture Dish” was a community-based project featuring seventeen artists, many from an AltaSea partner, Angel’s Gate Cultural Center in San Pedro. A closing event featured poets and presentations, with a catalog publication to follow. The exhibition at the Kellogg offers a beautiful view of artworks from the original venue and pays homage to the leadership of women at the forefront of art and science in service to the planet.The Cal Poly Pomona campus and Kellogg University Art Gallery community welcome Guest Curator Kim Abeles, and participating artists Amabelle Aguiluz, Isabel Beavers, Barbara Benish, Patsy Cox, Danielle Eubank, Katherine Gray, Cynthia Minet, Ann Phong, Barbara Thomason, and Minoosh Zomorodinia to our campus for a new iteration of the show titled “Above &amp; Below: Views from AltaSea's Blue Hour”.
