Take a deep breath, grab a map of exhibitors, and dive headfirst into this year's artLA (not to be confused with the Los Angeles Art Fair, also taking place this week). The 60-gallery labyrinth displays a cross-section of the local and international art scenes, offering cutting-edge pieces and outlandish performance art rather than high-end traditionalism. Window shoppers and collectors alike can also check out lectures, presentations, and art books galore.
