GIANT ROBOT STORE

To our great customers,

Like the giant big box stores around the nation, which we’ll never be… We’re also throwing our caps into the Black Friday madness, except there will be no running, pushing or sleepovers! Our Black Friday is simple.

For our online friends, take 20% off merchandise. This doesn’t include art unfortunately, but it does include the many fine items that are online. The online sale begins at 12 noon PST. Use the magic code: 20GRBF

In our physical store, for our Los Angeles friends and family, we’re doing something a bit different. With a purchase over $40, enjoy a free Giant Robot T-Shirt. We have plenty of designs to choose from. Pick one!

By shopping with Giant Robot this holiday, you’re supporting an independent company who strives to do things right! Thanks much. Click to shop with us.

WORK AND NON WORK

SUSIE GHAHREMANI

NOVEMBER 17 – DECEMBER 5, 2012

RECEPTION: SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 17, 6:30-10PM

Susie Ghahremani’s work is eye catching and quickly heart warming. Her painting style is smooth and echoes her life long interests in nature, animals, music and patterns. Ghahremani graduated from RISD in 2002 and continues her own business, “boygirlparty” in various forms including gift items, crafts and more.

This exhibition, Work and Non Work (the title borrowed from an album by Broadcast) “emphasizes the experimentation and play of my miniatures and drawings that I’ll be showing juxtaposed with the framed pieces.” Facebook event. More info.
