TRUDI is a small, experimental exhibition space location in Los
Angeles's Chinatown gallery district. It was established by Matthew
Chambers in April 2006 and features on-going solo exhibitions by
selected young artists.

Founded in 2005 by Joel Mesler and Daniel Hug, RENTAL was first
conceived of as a Los Angeles-based exhibition space available for
galleries to "rent" outside of their primary location. Establishing
this atypical approach, RENTAL curates galleries not artists.
Accordingly, the galleries selected to exhibit will present artwork
that reflects distinctive programs and international ideas.
