This Halloween, vintage hauntings and creepy DIY costumes come to KK Gallery with a very special show from one of LA’s most prolific artists. Gary Baseman opens up his vault and showcases for the first time a selection from his vintage Halloween photo collection dating back to 1915. Baseman’s collection of over 1500 photographs has been the inspiration for and the thread through a series of haunting original paintings, special edition prints, installations and videos. This multi-media exhibit will celebrate not only Baseman’s favorite holiday, but the debut show of the newly founded KK Gallery on Chung King Road in Chinatown. Opening night will have the artist’s presence and a special musical performance by Nightmare and The Cat.

This is KK Gallery’s newly opened shop in Chinatown in Los Angeles is set out to become an outlet for renowned artists to explore new stories, aesthetics or mediums they cannot usually exhibit in a commercial gallery space. Work that is meaningful to the artist and to people who love art and really good stories.
