Diva Corp Is Disrupting The LA Art Scene

The Los Angeles-based collective Diva Corp is challenging traditional art world hierarchies through a series of provocative interventions and exhibitions. Their recent solo show at Pio Pico, titled 'The Meeting,' gained notoriety for requiring visitors to surrender their phones before viewing a single painting, 'Untitled (Young adults are having less sex than ever), 2026.' This practice, alongside performances designed to circulate through digital retelling and social rumor, highlights the group's focus on the 'afterlife' of an artwork and the social friction it generates.

Creating a space to ‘Gossip’ with local artists

Seven local female artists have launched 'Gossip,' a self-produced group exhibition at Union Hall Gallery in San Diego’s Golden Hill neighborhood. Curated by Scarlett Baily, the show features a diverse array of disciplines including ceramics by Amber Schnitzius, oil painting by Baily Ludwick, and photography by Sarai Elguezabal. The exhibition emerged from the artists' shared desire to bypass the restrictive thematic requirements often found in San Diego’s limited gallery scene, opting instead for a space that prioritizes personal storytelling and creative intuition.
