The Hammer’s biennial exhibition Made in L.A. 2014 features works by 35 Los Angeles artists with an emphasis on emerging and under recognized artists. It debuts recent work and new painting, installation, video, sculpture, photography, and performances created specifically for the exhibition. Made in L.A. 2014 will be installed in every gallery at the Hammer Museum. The exhibition is presented by Wells Fargo and is organized by Hammer chief curator Connie Butler and independent curator Michael Ned Holte. A comprehensive hardcover catalog, as well as a full roster of free public programming will accompany the exhibition.

Three awards will be offered in conjunction with the exhibition: The Mohn Award ($100,000) and the Career Achievement Award ($25,000) both of which will be selected by a professional jury, and the Public Recognition Award ($25,000), which will be determined by a public vote. All three awards are funded through the generosity of the Los Angeles philanthropists and art collectors Jarl and Pamela Mohn and the Mohn Family Foundation. All the artists in the exhibition are eligible to receive the awards.
