Los Angeles artist Alex Becerra got his start selling drawings out of pizza boxes,
now he's making his Chicago debut at Shane Campbell Gallery.
Pizza Box, 2016, $1,200, including shipping, is an edition
of 5, each of which contains three original drawings,
available exclusively at artsy.net/culturedmagazine
"Before I graduated, I was carrying my drawings around in pizza boxes just giving them to people, and then when
Eve Fowler saw them at the Venice Beach Biennial, she started selling them at Artist Curated Projects. Presenting
them that way, you dig through them much more like records than precious objects, and I like that association
because you dig through a bunch of garbage, but then you'll find one gem and it's all worth it."
