Two new galleries open in a semicircular building at Forest and Ocean avenues in Laguna Beach, a gateway to downtown. CES Contemporary owner Carl E. Smith offers works on paper, collages and prints. Show’s this season include “Quadrivium,” through March 21; “Saturn Return,” which includes Stepanka Peterka’s One Shadow, March 23-April 16; and “Ira Svobodová” May 4-30. The location inspires the name of Forest & Ocean; owners Ludo and Barbara Leideritz have created a co-op for nearly a dozen artists–photographers like themselves and ceramicists–who take turns manning the gallery. 480 Ocean Ave., Laguna Beach.
