Nucleus art

I first heard of Nucleus about a couple of years ago from an old friend. I've been to the store located in Alhambra about 3 times. It's quite a drive out of the way, but I wouldn't mind visiting it again. Recently, I was prompted to visit the Nucleus website, and there, I found a googolplex of images that I saved to my folder of "Pictures that I really like". It's not really called that, but I think you get the point. Here are some artworks I really liked:

Fuco Ueda


Emma Sky


Ena


Frank Stockton



I have a bunch more but I'll save those for later! As you could probably tell from the pictures, Nucleus has a very Pop-Japanese feel to it, one type of art that I really enjoy. But art isn't the only thing you'll find at Nucleus. You'll find lots of unnecessarily necessary things to buy for quite a price (not cheap). Even so, it's worth checking out and it's doing wonders as an art gallery/store.

Nucleus will be moving it's store soon. To this new address:

210 East Main St.
Alhambra CA 91801

I believe it's still close by to the previous Nucleus. I don't know when I'll find the time to visit the new store though.
