In order to give you the best of Los Angeles, Whitewaller spoke with Arthur Lewis, Creative Director of UTA Fine Arts and UTA Artist Space, who shared his favorite spots in the city.
Where is your favorite spot in the city to find inspiration?
The Underground Museum. Lovers of the visual arts, music, and community come together to make this one of the coolest spots in LA.
What is your favorite off-the-beaten path place to see art?
I am always incredibly curious to see what restaurants and coffee shops have on their walls. Harun Coffee in Leimert Park had a painting on the wall by artist Ferrari Sheppard that now hangs in my home.
What is the best kept secret in Los Angeles?
I am a big fan of Alta restaurant in West Adams. The menu is a light take on comfort food. The atmosphere is really relaxed and I love that I often encounter friends and neighbors having a meal or a drink at the bar.
