Join fellow Art-full Angelenos for an intimate after-hours evening with artist Katie Shapiro and a private viewing of her exhibition, The Other Side of the Moon at Hannah Sloan Curatorial & Advisory.
With the gallery closed to the public, we’ll experience the exhibition alongside Katie as she shares the stories, ideas, and personal experiences behind this deeply autobiographical body of work. Throughout the evening, guests will have the opportunity to engage directly with the artist, ask questions, and explore the work through conversation.
In The Other Side of the Moon, Shapiro pushes photography beyond the traditional image, combining photographs with glass, mirrors, obsidian, jade, and other sculptural materials to explore the spaces between the seen and unseen, physical and psychological, intimate and cosmic.
Her lunar imagery becomes a lens for considering motherhood, memory, healing, transformation, and the cyclical nature of life.
Katie’s work has been exhibited internationally and is held in public collections including LACMA, The Huntington, and the California Museum of Photography. She lives and works in Los Angeles.
Drinks and light snacks will be served, with plenty of time to mingle, connect, and meet fellow Art-full Angelenos who share a love of art and culture.
Come for a special evening of art, conversation, and connection—with rare access to both the exhibition and the artist in an intimate setting.
Space is limited for this private Women of Culture gathering. Advance ticket purchase required.

More about the Artist:
Katie Shapiro’s (b. 1983, Los Angeles, CA) practice explores the ineffable—making visible what cannot be seen. Her most recent work reflects her ongoing investigation into perception, presence, and what lies beyond view. She holds an MFA from the University of California, Irvine, and a BFA in Photography from CalArts.
Her work has been exhibited internationally, with recent and past shows at institutions including Aperture Gallery, Kopeikin Gallery, Klompching Gallery, Christopher Grimes Gallery, and The Center for Photographic Art in Carmel, CA. Her work has appeared in Artforum, The Los Angeles Times, and New York Magazine.
Her work is included in numerous private and public collections, notably the Los Angeles County Museum of Art (LACMA), the Huntington Library and Art Collection, the California Museum of Photography in Riverside, and the Amon Carter Museum Library.
Shapiro has held residencies at the Banff Centre in Canada and Bullseye Glass in Pasadena, and is slated to attend Mass MoCA next summer as an artist-in-residence. She lives and works in Los Angeles.
