HistoryI have been an artist for over 20 years + have played around with the idea of museums + galleries as my work for a while. I used to have a space called the Bert Rodriguez Museum which was literally just my home. It was open to the public just like any other museum only the art was everything I lived with. Since closing that space, I've expanded the idea to include my studio + work space (The Museum of Meaning) which houses a public project space where I invite artists to exhibit their work along side my own + host events in order to create a dialog about art + ideas. The end.SpecialtiesLocated in the heart of Los Angeles, CA., Bert Rodriguez Museum is a public institution charged with archiving the continuously evolving and expanding collection of artifacts surrounding the life of contemporary artist Bert Rodriguez.
