About Obsolete
For over 15 years, Obsolete has presented unique furniture, lighting, and curiosities alongside contemporary figurative art. Our collection includes the modern and the primitive, the functional and the defunct. With carefully considered and dynamic installations, we value a visual poetry that thrives in the aesthetic relationships made between disparate forms and unexpected pairings. Located in Culver City in the west side of Los Angeles, we look forward to your visit.
