| | | | As artists reassess tradition and chart novel paths forward, October in Los Angeles brings new takes on old forms. David Lloyd and Annie Lapin use myriad techniques and visual languages to offer fresh approaches to painting, the former with technology and the latter with cacophonous garden imagery. Meanwhile, the Perez Bros celebrate lowrider car culture in their collaborative works riffing on monochromes and SoCal “finish fetish,” and Mark Steven Greenfield showcases portraits of influential figures from the Black diaspora as religious icons adorned with gold leaf. A solo show of late artist Joe Brainard presents his singular practice thatdefied categorization, and Peter Krasnow’s gallery retrospective highlights his ability to mine his European Jewish heritage and longtime home of Los Angeles to create his own aesthetic vocabulary. | See our full list of shows to see in LA this month |
