The "Grand Chairs" & Their Artists

Steve Shriver is a local artist with several ties to the Warner Grand Theater. He has worked for several years as a decorative painter, performing many of the tasks that one sees exemplified in the magnificent interior of the theater. In addition, he is currently working on the Pacific Palisades home built by Anthony Heinsbergen, the man responsible for the original decoration of the Warner Grand. He is also working on assembling a book about the Heinsbergen legacy, which comprised over 700 projects including the Biltmore Hotel and the Pantages theaters. He returned to creating his own personal work in 1999 at the (now defunct) Gallery 434, just down the street from the theater on 6th street, with a show called "Freeway Sketches and Refinery Suites". He will continue that theme in a show at the Joslyn Art Center in Torrance when it reopens in the fall.
