In 1986, the Brockman Gallery presented Common Ground, a landmark exhibition that invited audiences to reflect on the shared struggles, creative expressions, and cultural values of underrepresented artists across communities. Curated by esteemed Chicana artist Linda Vallejo, the show affirmed, “We are all here together, living on common ground.”
While Brockman is best known as a center of the Black Arts Movement in Los Angeles, the Davis brothers were committed to promoting outstanding underrepresented artists more broadly, supporting Asian American, Latinx, and women artists, and fostering meaningful cultural exchange through collaborative exhibitions and curatorial partnerships.
Join us for a panel exploring Brockman’s inclusive philosophy, its role in community-building, and its enduring impact on Leimert Park and beyond. Presented in tandem with Act On It! Artists, Community, and the Brockman Gallery in Los Angeles.
