Join Us for the Opening installation TAM Art Museum

We cordially invite you to attend the opening installation at the Torrance Art Museum. This marks an exceptional opportunity to experience compelling new work in an intimate cultural setting

Main Gallery: Defending Ethical Integrity: the new Degenerate Art
As political forces tighten their grip on cultural institutions, DEFENDING ETHICAL INTEGRITY (D.E.I.) stands as both a rebellion and a celebration of fearless self-expression while confronting state-controlled narratives, censorship, and the suppression of creative autonomy.

Drawing from the Trump administration’s intervention in the Smithsonian, the Kennedy Center, and the NEA and evoking the legacy of the Nazi Party’s 1937 Degenerate Art exhibition—used to vilify and silence artists—this show reclaims the term as a symbol of resistance. Featuring a diverse group of contemporary artists, Defending Ethical Integrity challenges power structures, disrupts social taboos, and amplifies voices that refuse to conform.

Gallery Two: Nine Visions X Nine Artists
The MRH Fund for Artists was established to provide artists with direct financial support to expand their creative reach through the realization of a defined art project. The artists selected each year have been nominated by invited arts organizations in the Southern California region.
