Circus Gallery is
proud to announce Lauren Lavitt’s first Los Angeles solo exhibition
“The Wild Flower.” “The Wild Flower’ promises to be one of the most
challenging and rewarding shows that Circus Gallery has presented date.
Lavitt will be presenting twenty new drawings and paintings as well her
video work and photographs. In a month that all the galleries in LA are
presenting their season openers “The Wild Flower” is sure to make an
impact and is a show not to be missed.
Lavitt mixes a complex
mixing of painting, drawing, video and sculpture with themes of
flowers, sex, and physical experience of the world around us. In the
past few years she has amassed a large and challenging body of work.
She has been producing a complex visual language that depends on a very
corporeal experience of the world. Her work is not “gotten”
immediately. As it slowly unfolds one starts to piece together themes,
and shapes like people emerging from a foggy beach. “The Wild Flower”
comes from an idea of her youth and coming of age in her parents flower
shop in Northridge, California.
Lauren Lavitt has shown her work
nationally and internationally. Most recently John Baldassari asked her
to show her work at the San Jose Institute of Contemporary Art. She has
shown her work at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Rome Italy, Play
Gallery Berlin, Video Forms, Clearmon-Ferrand, France, Slam Dance Film
Festival in Utah, and in Los Angeles at Anna Helwing Gallery, 4F
Gallery, and Fritz Heag’s Sundown Salon.
