Devendra Banhart, is set to present Other Flowers, a multi-medium pop-up retail experience at Hauser & Wirth Los Angeles as part of the gallery’s third annual Holiday Market, a two-day marketplace featuring more than 40 local artists, performers, and nonprofits.

Here, Banhart will offer visitors access to his work in art, song, curation, and magic: in addition to exclusive merchandise items created for ‘Other Flowers,’ the pop-up will have collaboratively-made apparel, books, personalized vinyl, photography, and paintings. ‘Other Flowers’ will also be the site of live performances ranging from song and dance, to pantomime and magic. The line-up includes Banhart, who will perform rare solo set, as well as White Fence, Rodrigo Amarante, Nao Bustamante, Jasmine Albuquerque and Friends, and Invisible Women, among others.

On Saturday, artist Claire Hungerford and Leaves and Flowers have partnered to present a chai cart in the gallery’s courtyard as part of the Holiday Market project.

Other Flowers will be open throughout the course of the Hauser & Wirth Holiday Market, from Saturday through Sunday, 14 – 15 December 2019, 11 am – 6 pm.

 Freddie Gibbs & Madlib - Tiny Desk Concert

Admittedly not a big fan of a lot of current rap (or superfluous use of either the "n word" or "uh" mid flow),  I have to say there are some serious grooves here in this collaborative effort for the Freddie Gibbs and Madlib NPR Tiny Desk Concert.  Leon Michels and members of the (always cool) Dap Kings and El Michels Affair: Marco Benevento, Nick Movshon and Homer Steinweiss largely contribute to my thumbs up opinion.
