Photographer Sam Comen’s Solo Exhibition '28 at 28' October 22, 2011

Opening Reception: Saturday, October 22, 2011, 6-9pm -

Award-winning photographer Sam Comen’s first solo exhibition, "28 at 28," premieres with an installation of over 100 works at Culver City’s NextSpace starting on Saturday, October 22, 2011.  "28 at 28" is a serial portraiture study that captures the evolving lives of Comen’s peer group in a crisp, saturated style.  Comen unveils the first three years of this new body of work at a free public reception on October 22, 2011 from 6:00 to 9:00pm – on his 31st birthday. The choice of this date to debut the ongoing project calls attention to time’s passage, the integral throughline in "28 at 28."

The two-story atrium of NextSpace will be transformed into a larger-than life timeline of Comen’s subjects in a taxonomic display of environmental and studio photographs. Beverages will be provided by Crispin Cider. The exhibition will run for three months through Sunday, January 22, 2012. NextSpace, a creative collaborative community workspace, is open to the public Monday through Friday from 8:30am to 5:30pm at 9415 Culver Blvd., Culver City, CA 90232.
