L.A. Louver is pleased to present the pop-up exhibition California Color: Peter Alexander, Karl Benjamin, John McCracken. The artists in this exhibition are linked by their interest in form and color, and by their deep ties to the landscape and culture of Southern California. Nonetheless, each artist retains a unique approach to their medium and subject matter. Paintings on view by Karl Benjamin speak to his lifelong exploration of color relationships and geometric vocabularies. Alexander’s resin and polyurethane sculptures are suffused with soft hues, at times recalling sensations akin to light filtering through ocean water or the glass of a foggy window. McCracken’s freestanding sculpture and wall hangings combine precision and sensuality, resulting in futuristic objects with an arresting presence.
