Perrotin Los Angeles introduces Josh Sperling's first solo exhibition on the West Coast, titled 'Big Picture.' This exhibition features a blend of the artist's unique sculptural paintings and his latest design ventures, where function meets artistic expression. Sperling's works are characterized by vibrant, undulating shapes that create an immersive atmosphere, challenging conventional boundaries. The title plays on Los Angeles's film industry ties, and the exhibition itself artistically reimagines a historic theater space, reflecting Sperling's growth and his interest in producing art that transcends traditional formats through innovative three-dimensional forms.
The exhibition's cheeky title references LA's renown as the hub of the film industry and the gallery's transformation of the former Del Mar Theater into an exhibition space.
Big Picture showcases a dynamic evolution in Sperling's practice, highlighting his desire to work beyond the confines of the wall.
Sperling mixes and matches sharp, flat planes with raised, curvilinear shapes in various textures and surface treatments, creating shifting linear perspectives.
The 'Composites,' elaborate power-clashing choreographies of form, color, and pattern, are an ideal introduction to the artist's practice.
