Taking inspiration from art historical genres, ranging from French rococo and Italian baroque to abstract expression, British artist Flora Yukhnovich’s paintings explore materiality and process through cascading forms that shift between representation and abstraction. For her first solo exhibition in Los Angeles, Yukhnovich will present her latest body of work, a series of canvases inspired by Bacchanalia. Addressing the excesses of consumerism and popular culture, her lush, swirling brushstrokes evoke the dynamism and intense corporeality of both ancient and contemporary hedonism. A catalogue featuring an extensive selection of illustrations by Yukhnovich, along with a text by curator Eleanor Nairne, will accompany the exhibition. ‘Bacchanalia’ at Hauser & Wirth Downtown Los Angeles will coincide with ‘Flora Yukhnovich's Four Seasons’ at The Frick Collection in New York (3 September 2025 – 9 March 2026), a site-specific mural in response to François Boucher’s Four Seasons series.

Lee Lozano made these provocative drawings at a remarkably fast pace, using a variety of artistic styles. Informed by the artist’s unsparing eye and wry humor, they dissect such societal norms as gender roles and property ownership while challenging the commodification of art and, ultimately, all conventional aspects of life. Shown together, Lozano’s drawings embody her unbridled energy and social consciousness, radical for their time, and continue to provoke questions today. Although rarely exhibited during her lifetime, this body of work is instrumental to understanding the singular trajectory of Lozano's practice. In conjunction with the exhibition, Hauser & Wirth Publishers will release ‘In the Studio,’ a new book focused on Lozano’s life and work, written by Lucrezia Calabrò Visconti.
