The Abstract Future, curated by Alia Dahl,
documents a new generation of artists who are
redefining abstraction by merging sculpture,
painting, photography, and performance. Spanning
both our Los Angeles galleries, the exhibition
highlights over thirty artists who are simultaneously
exploring process and materiality while addressing
themes of identity, culture, and political beliefs to
reflect their unique personal narratives.
California has a rich history of abstraction, from
the Light and Space movement and Finish Fetish
to the development of geometric abstraction
and conceptual art. The Abstract Future builds
upon this legacy, presenting artists who infuse
abstraction with fresh perspectives–drawing inspiration from historical influences, current
events, environmental changes, astronomical exploration, and advancements in technology
and science.
The Abstract Future is an international exhibition, featuring artists from Europe, South
America, and Africa, alongside those based across the United States. This global perspective
underscores the universal relevance of abstraction as a method of creative production and
its capacity to offer insight into the human experience across cultures and contexts.
