Critic’s Notebook: Matthew Marks Gallery design blurs line between art, architecture
Peter Zellner’s restrained tribute to abstraction in West Hollywood is also the backdrop to an Ellsworth Kelly sculpture. The new Matthew Marks Gallery in West Hollywood isn’t just the first ground-up building by the 42-year-old Los Angeles architect Peter Zellner. A clean-lined, windowless stucco box on Orange Grove Avenue just south of Santa Monica Boulevard, it is also almost entirely free-standing. Attached on one of its four sides to a mortuary, it is otherwise visible in the round, making it one of the most conspicuous architectural debuts to appear in Southern California in a number of years.
