In his book Discovering the L.A. Art World, John Marcella Grant demonstrates the power of a simple knock on a studio door. That knock, along with the phrase 'You are my favorite artist, and we came from Texas to see you, ' gained him admittance to Mark Bradford's studio in 2012, opening the door-literally and metaphorically-to the direct experience of a varied and vital group of artists and art world figures. Yes, there are some closed doors (Mark Grotjahn and Kehinde Wiley), but also real, ongoing engagements and conversations-particularly with critic/gallerist Mat Gleason and artist Bradford J. Salamon, that reward Grant's earnest approach. Told in a slightly awestruck voice and tempered with fair-mindedness, the anecdotes presented in Discovering the L.A. Art World provide private glimpses of a world that other less courageous writers could have never entered. - John Seed, Author of My Art Worl
