SUMMARY:Art Exhibition: Garden of Eve
DESCRIPTION:LBMA Downtown will host an exhibition of Angie Crabtree’s artwork called “Garden of Eve” from July 12 to September 28\, 2025. Crabtree is one of the artists painting a mural as part of the Long Beach Walls festival and is known for her hyperrealistic depictions of precious gemstones. Admission is free\, and the gallery is open Thursday through Sunday from 11 AM to 4 PM. \nAngie Crabtree’s paintings dissect the mythology of luxury. Diamonds became her first muse\, the commodification of nature—the way raw beauty is captured\, fixed\, and displayed as proof of success. Their natural forms\, once buried deep beneath the earth\, now mined\, cut\, and polished into representations of what’s impossibly valuable. By enlarging them to monumental scale\, she invites viewers to consider the origins of the stones\, their societal significance\, and reconsider their true value. \nFrom diamonds to desire\, Crabtree debuts her latest series of paintings\, Eve and Her Sacred Garden. Her new body of work critiques power structures and gender roles embedded into luxury culture. Wealth has historically been built on systems of colonization and exploitation\, woven deep into the histories of gemstones and fashion. Crabtree explores femininity and how these legacies continue to shape contemporary ideals of beauty and status. She references Eve and the “Garden” as metaphors for innocence lost to material temptation\, recasting Eve not as the origin of shame\, but as the first to question the cost of desire. \nAngie Crabtree (b. 1987) is a painter from Santa Rosa\, California. Her paintings draw from the visual languages of Baroque and Rococo portraiture\, fused with symbols of modern aspiration—from designer accessories to rare plants and social media aesthetics. By enlarging gemstones and still life to an almost spiritual scale\, Crabtree invites viewers to reflect on the illusion of perfection and the psychological cost of opulence. Crabtree graduated with her BFA from the San Francisco Art Institute and currently lives and works in Long Beach\, California.
