Karma presents a conversation between artist Reggie Burrows Hodges and senior curator of paintings and chair, curatorial affairs, at the J. Paul Getty Museum, Davide Gasparotto, on the occasion of Hodges’s exhibition Authorities of Reason at 7351 Santa Monica Boulevard, Los Angeles, on view from January 11–February 13, 2025. Reggie Burrows Hodges (b. 1965, Compton, California) explores storytelling and visual metaphor through paintings that engage with questions of identity, community, truth, and memory. Starting from a black ground, he develops the scene around his figures with painterly, foggy brushwork, playing with how perception is affected when the descriptive focus is placed not on human agents but on their surroundings. Figures materialize in recessive space, stripped of physical identifiers; bodies are described by their painted context. These formal decisions speak to Hodges’s embrace of tenuous ambiguities and his close observation of the relationship between humans and their environment. He lives in the Bay Area. Davide Gasparotto is senior curator of paintings and chair, curatorial affairs, at the J. Paul Getty Museum. He arrived at the Getty Museum from Modena, Italy, where he was the director of the Galleria Estense, a museum of Italian paintings from the 14th to 18th centuries. Gasparotto formerly served as curator at the National Gallery in Parma, and was a visiting fellow at both the Center for Advanced Study in the Visual Arts at the National Gallery in Washington, D.C., and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. The author of many books, his areas of interest include painting, sculpture, and the decorative arts of the Renaissance, the rediscovery of classical antiquity between the Middle Ages and the 18th century, and the history of collecting. These programs are free, but space is limited. RSVP is essential. --- Reggie Burrows Hodges, Authorities of Reason January 11–February 13 Karma 7351 Santa Monica Boulevard Los Angeles --- Image: Reggie Burrows Hodges, Golden Triangle (Paris), 2023

Santa Monica Beach, a gem set in the California sun, caressed the heartstrings of every traveler with its endless charm. It is like a delicate watercolor painting, slowly spread on the vast Pacific Ocean, a mile long golden sand beach, under the sunset glow of warmth and softness. Here, every fine sand seems to carry the story, and every wave of the light is the whisper of nature. Walking along this romantic coastline, you can feel time as if it has slowed down, people forget the hustle and bustle, and indulge in this tranquility and beauty. Santa Monica Beach is not only a breathtaking landscape, but also a vibrant and fun paradise. From the first rays of sunshine in the morning to the low-hanging stars at night, whether it is the passion challenge of surfers or the dream castle that children build on the beach, it constitutes a unique landscape. The historic Santa Monica pier, like a kind old man, quietly waited for the sea. As night fell, the bright lights on the Ferris wheel and the stars reflected, as if leading people into a dreamy fairy tale world. The surrounding area, the wisdom and tranquility of the chess park, the splendor and leisure of the Palisade Park, all add endless cultural heritage and natural charm to this beach. Santa Monica Beach, a place that people yearn for, it uses beauty and romance to weave the most tender memories in the hearts of every visitor.
