Los Angeles, CA - PRJCTLA is pleased to announce ABSTRACTION not ABSTRACTION, a summer group show exploring the multifaceted category of abstraction and delving into the realm of quasi-abstraction.
Although the exhibition contains artwork that can be categorized as pure abstraction, the show also features work that diverges from the formal definition of “abstract.” Representational elements sit beside, and converse with color fields and hard edge abstraction.
ABSTRACTION not ABSTRACTION presents a cohesive, yet expansive understanding of abstraction. This exhibition was initially conceived by the curator while isolating during the first lockdown.
During this time, artists were busy in their studios and sharing their new work through social media. Carl Berg, the director and curator of PRJCTLA, watched artists posting new work mainly on Instagram and was amazed by the art they created, including some artists who he had know for years but never collaborated with in the past. The artists seem to push their work in new directions.
The show also includes artists Berg has collaborated with for many years. The mix of work is thematically broad yet focuses on specific interests in Berg’s own curatorial practice.
PRJCTLA is pleased to present a diverse range of exhibitions creating a collaborative relationship with a variety of established, mid-career and emerging artists.
Gallery Hours: Wednesday - Saturday 12NOON - 6PM
