'We are a gallery all about inclusivity,' Yiwei Lu said.
Yiwei Lu, 28, is the owner of Yiwei Gallery, a local art space in Venice Beach that was transformed from a garage. Since 2019, her gallery has successfully presented dozens of artists, particularly those of Asian descent and from the local Venice Beach community.
"We are a gallery all about inclusivity. We showcase artists from diverse backgrounds and strive to present something different and new," Lu told "Good Morning America."After graduating from the University of Southern California, Lu developed a deep interest in the LA art scene and began curating artworks for underrepresented artists. Lu said she recognized a lack of representation for Asian artists on the West Coast and decided to open her own platform.
