M+B Gallery in Los Angeles

Editorial Profile

M+B is a Los Angeles gallery based on North Almont Drive, near West Hollywood, with a program that has moved from a strong photography identity toward a broader contemporary art platform. Its own 2025 online anniversary series frames this history clearly, revisiting figures such as Matthew Brandt, Mariah Robertson, Hannah Whitaker, LeRoy Grannis, and Matthew Porter while acknowledging that the gallery began with artists pushing the photographic medium in new directions. That background still matters within contemporary art in Los Angeles, where lens-based practice, studio production, and object-based experimentation often overlap. Today the roster extends across painting, sculpture, ceramics, photography, and mixed media, with artists including Eva Beresin, Phil Chang, Angela Dufresne, Jessica Eaton, Sarah Faux, Mark Thomas Gibson, Whitney Hubbs, Kristof Santy, and Catherine Mulligan.

The exhibition program shows a deliberate balance between medium-specific inquiry and more expanded contemporary practice. Recent and listed presentations such as Jody Baral’s Offerings, Kristof Santy’s Perfect Days, Stephen Buscemi’s Playing In And Out Of Tune, Mariah Robertson’s Phase Shift, Matthew Brandt’s Rearview, Arghavan Khosravi’s At Her Fingertips, and the group exhibition Magic Echoes: Brazil Diasporas’ Vibrant Encounters with Ancestrality suggest a rhythm attentive to material process, image culture, figuration, abstraction, and culturally situated narratives. Among galleries in Los Angeles, M+B occupies a position between specialist photographic history and a more flexible commercial contemporary program. Its Casa MB space in Milan, M+B PHOTO platform, and participation in contexts such as Felix Art Fair point to an international reach that remains anchored in Los Angeles rather than detached from it.
