Other new products include special MOCA holiday cards, designed by 4th graders at the Loreto Street School in Cypress Park through the museum’s educational program Contemporary Art Start. MOCA has brought in noted artist and designer John Van Hamersveld, who created a full-color graphic representation of the museum for tote bags, T-shirts and posters.

The Los Angeles County Museum of Art and the Museum of Contemporary Art are attempting to lure holiday shoppers with changes in their museum shops. The portfolios are issued in a limit of 100, and the price varies with the edition from $8,000 to $15,000. The portfolios were assembled by Richard Gere and Bill Borden, and proceeds from their sale will go to the Tibet House in New York to continue its support of the preservation and world appreciation of Tibetan cultural and religious heritage.

Two limited-edition portfolios of works by 24 renowned photographers including Annie Leibovitz, Kurt Markus, Sebastiao Salgado, William Claxton, Duane Michals and Herb Ritts will be on view at the Fahey/Klein Gallery for one week beginning Wednesday. She is also featured in a show opening in December at Artists’ Space gallery in New York. McBride’s past shows have included solo exhibitions in Portugal and Germany, and local group shows at Los Angeles Contemporary Exhibitions and the now-defunct Jeffrey Linden Gallery, both of which featured her site-specific installations.

So I thought, ‘I wonder what you can make out of it?’ and the answer was anything. I don’t think anybody’s ever worked in rattan before. So I wanted to see what I could do to transcend that. “It’s always been used for handicrafts, but nobody uses it for sculpture. It has kind of a trendy, ‘60s connotation-everybody has it in their home,” says the spunky McBride, 30. “In some ways, rattan is very cheap and inelegant. “I work in all different materials, but I think each means something and has its own specific codes,” says sculptor Rita McBride, who has three large pieces made of her latest material, rattan, on view at Margo Leavin Gallery on North Hilldale Avenue, through Dec.
