Artists: Carlos Beltran Arechiga, EC, Ivana Cekovic, Joe Davidson, Ian Dawson, Jeff Desome, Tom Dunn, Brian Thomas Jones, Katarzyna Kot, David Leapman, Bertrand Ney, Karolina Pernar, Alison Woods With Figura: Micro Macro, Durden and Ray will exhibit artists from one of the world’s largest countries, the United States, together with artists from one of Europe’s tiniest countries, Luxembourg. (Luxembourg at 998 square miles is even smaller than the smallest state in the U.S., Rhode Island at 1,045 square miles.) And, for good measure, there are a couple of British artists thrown into the mix. Works in the show carry the idea of figura, a thing representing an ideal, in this case, the essence of the humanity. By seeing the works together, visitors may experience what scientists often notice: there is a visual and organizational similarity to the view of the smallest cells in a microscope and the view of a solar system through a giant telescope. After the exhibition closes at Durden and Ray’s urban gallery in the Fashion District of Los Angeles, it will move to Luxembourg, where the Luxembourg collective miMO will exhibit it in an ancient former monastery. The show opens there on September 6, 2019 and runs through September 29, 2019.
