Behind-the-Scenes Gallery Tour
Helms Design Center, Culver City
Saturday, June 11, 2022
Join the SAH/SCC for an exciting, in-person event: a
behind-the-scenes tour of the James Hubbell exhibition at the Helms Design Center
in Culver City. Drew Hubbell, the architects son and architectural partner in
Hubbell and Hubbell, will walk the exhibit with this exclusive group on
Saturday, June 11th, 2022.
James Hubbell is a painter, sculptor and architectural designer
who has spent 60 years designing and making buildings, artifacts and fine
artworks that reflect a deep passion for the ocean and for earth’s gifts. From
Ilan Lael, his self-made home, workshops and foundation in Ju lian near San
Diego, Hubbell has created schools in concert with the community in Tijuana, an
organic chapel at Sea Ranch, and parks that span the cultures of the Pacific
Rim.
Hubbell’s vision is the antithesis of rational and industrial.
“Most important is my infatuation with nature,” he says. “There is also my love
of the primitive and naive, gothic architecture, the arts and craft movement,
Frank Lloyd Wright, Gaudi, and the pleasure of working with the material of
stone, wood, cement, clay, metal, glass, and mosaics.”
Now Angelenos can see his architectural work shown for the first
time in L.A.The installation brings to life Ilan-Lael, his Pacific Rim Park
and schools in Tijuana, his chapel at Sea Ranch, as well as stunning doors,
windows and other decorative building elements including his extraordinary
stained glass window for Findhorn, the spiritual retreat in Scotland.
