Sometime between 11:00 AM and 1:00 PM on Thursday,
May 7, 2009 two paintings by Lauren Gardiner were brazenly stolen from La Luz de Jesus Gallery by one or more thieves. The two paintings, valued at $1750 had previously been purchased by clients, impacting not only the gallery but the artist and the patrons. If you have seen these
pieces hanging in someone's home, been approached with an offer of sale, or overheard information that might hasten their recovery, please call us.
A REWARD WILL BE GIVEN FOR THE RECOVERY OF THE PAINTINGS. NO QUESTIONS ASKED!
You can call the gallery director's line: (323) 666-7667, or contact the LAPD Art Theft Detail at
