The type of work that's usually celebrated at La Luz de Jesus Gallery, located inside Wacko (the Costco of kitsch), is usually irreverent, curious, and at the forefront of post-illustration urban art. Once a year, the gallery puts on an enormous juried exhibition, and this year's theme-free show brings together over 150 pieces by more than 100 artists — including tattooists, scenic painters, commercial illustrators, animators, and more. It's pretty much the only place in LA where you can check out some of the freshest boundary-pushing art and pick up a Jenna Jameson keychain or chili-pepper holiday lights on your way out.
