Monumental Opening Reception

VEFA Gallery presents Monumental Opening Reception — the opening night of Andy Scott's solo exhibition. The internationally acclaimed Scottish sculptor, now based in Los Angeles, offers a rare behind-the-scenes view into a practice that has shaped public space across continents. Through original sketches, maquettes, construction photography, and select unbuilt projects, this intimate evening traces the lineage from studio study to monumental form. Hosted within a space that honors provenance and the discipline of craft, the event invites collectors, artists, and the Southern California art community to witness a moment where process and presence intersect. Saturday, February 21, 2026, 6–8pm, VEFA Gallery.

With limited attendance, the reception foregrounds timeless value over passing trend. The curated material provides context for discerning acquisitions and informs long-term conservation of the artist’s work within a private or institutional collection. This is more than a social evening; it’s an opportunity to engage with a living dialogue about scale, site, and the evolving language of sculpture as it continues to resonate in public and private spaces.
