Zheng Chongbin: Golden State | Los Angeles County Museum of Art
Mar 23, 2025–Jan 4, 2026 (UTC-8)
Los Angeles
Over the past four decades, Shanghai-born, Marin County–based artist Zheng Chongbin (b. 1961) has cultivated a unique practice that engages with the driving concepts and aesthetics of the Light and Space movement and East Asia’s tradition of ink painting. Educated in both traditional Chinese figurative painting and installation and performance art, Zheng synthesizes these seemingly disparate practices into unprecedented signature painting and video techniques. Zheng Chongbin: Golden State is a focused presentation that features two video installation pieces coupled with painted and printed works. Through abstract forms and distorted views of California’s natural landscape, Zheng explores water, light, and movement in his signature works.

Jun 10–Sep 14, 2025 (UTC-8)
Los Angeles
In 2020, a massive explosion in the port of Beirut devastated the city. Among the wreckage was a previously unknown painting by Artemisia Gentileschi, the most celebrated woman painter of 17th-century Italy. Depicting a scene from the Greek myth of Hercules, the severely damaged painting came to Getty for in-depth conservation treatment. In an installation focused on its repair, the restored painting is accompanied by four of Gentileschi’s other paintings, highlighting her special focus on donne forti (strong women) from the classical and biblical traditions.
Artist Selects: Frances Stark, Periodic Love and Perpetual War | Los Angeles County Museum of Art
Jun 13–Nov 9, 2025 (UTC-8)

She is the second participant in the Artist Selects series, which invites artists to create an exhibition with works from LACMA’s Rifkind Center for German Expressionist Studies. Guided by formal and thematic rhymes, Stark’s visual essay brings together works by Karl Blossfeldt, Otto Dix, Wassily Kandinsky, Käthe Kollwitz, and others. In a world that is out of joint, Stark grapples with questions about the role of the artist amid the cycles of passion, creation, and violent destruction that characterize the human experience.

Anne Appleby observes the natural environment in her rural Montana surroundings and across North America through an acute awareness of color. The artist’s edge-to-edge color field paintings are composed of multi-panel works often in grid form, revealing chromatic shifts in the context of sequential development. Each panel is a complex and luminous documentation of time, encapsulating the potentiality of the regeneration of the natural world and its cycles.

Li Ran: The Signs are Present | Lisson Gallery
Jun 27–Aug 23, 2025 (UTC-8)
Los Angeles
Lisson Gallery is pleased to present The Signs are Present, the first solo exhibition in Los Angeles by Li Ran. Comprising nine, recent, oil-on-canvas works—including some of the largest paintings the artist has made to date—this exhibition marks a discernable evolution in Li’s practice, wherein his focus has shifted toward the material and formal qualities of painting. Known for his cross-disciplinary approach, which spans video, performance, writing, and installation, Li often interrogates systems of ideology, cultural translation, and intellectual history. In this new body of work, he deliberately tempers the satirical and conceptual strategies that defined his earlier projects—where appropriation and narrative construction played central roles—in favor of a quieter, more ambiguous visual language. Here, narrative intent becomes more elusive, embedded subtly rather than explicitly articulated.
Y.Z. Kami: The Domes | Beverly Hills
Jun 28–Aug 15, 2025 (UTC-8)
Beverly Hills
Gagosian presents The Domes, an exhibition of paintings by Y.Z. Kami. The presentation brings together two bodies of work by the artist: a survey of Dome paintings made from 2011 to the present, and a group of new Messenger paintings. The exhibition marks a meaningful return to the West Coast for Kami—he spent his early years in Northern California after moving to the United States from Tehran in 1973, and Southern California has played host to a number of his institutional presentations, including a solo exhibition at the Los Angeles County Museum of Art nearly a decade ago.
CHRISTINA KIMEZE | Hauser & Wirth
Jun 28–Oct 4, 2025 (UTC-8)
West Hollywood
For her first solo exhibition with Hauser & Wirth, British artist Christina Kimeze will present new paintings that explore the complexity of interior spaces, both domestic and psychological. Vibrant and uniquely textured, her canvases depict ethereal interiors, landscapes and figures—either solitary or intimately connected—with an air of mystery and mutability. Tactility is an essential element of these works.
MOCA Focus: Takako Yamaguchi | The Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles
Jun 29, 2025–Mar 1, 2026 (UTC-8)
Los Angeles
MOCA Focus: Takako Yamaguchi is the third exhibition in the recently relaunched MOCA Focus series, which presents an artist’s first solo museum show in Los Angeles and centers on new or discrete bodies of work. Born in Okayama, Japan, in 1952, Yamaguchi moved to the U.S. in the early 1970s and began to appropriate imagery from sources as diverse as Mexican muralism, Renaissance art, Japanese Nihonga, and Art Nouveau in ornate paintings that pose a challenge to rigid notions of ethnic identity and cultural ownership. At age seventy-two, the Los Angeles–based artist is synthesizing the motifs she has developed over the past forty years in a series of archly stylized oil-and-bronze-leaf seascapes featured in this exhibition. Yamaguchi’s precise yet luscious paintings incorporate her “Eastern” and “Western”-influenced vocabulary of abstract zigzags, spirals, and braids to denote natural forms like rain, waves, and mountains, representing a culmination of her decades-long provocations of style, taste, and identity.
Tracing Performance, Fictions of Display | The Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles
Jun 29, 2025–Mar 1, 2026 (UTC-8)
Los Angeles
This exhibition highlights works from the MOCA permanent collection that engage with the not always obvious relationship between objects, theater, and performance. Tracing Performance, Fictions of Display builds upon Claes Oldenburg’s The Store (1961-62), a performative project that staged the commercial transaction of selling an artwork in a bodega-like environment, as well as other economies determined by gestures, transactions, and bodies in works by Colette (or her alter ego Justine), Rebecca Horn, Brian Jurgen, Mike Kelley, Terence Koh, Beverly Semmes, Hiroshi Sugimoto, and Martine Syms, among others. Several works on view have never been exhibited at MOCA before, including the painting Monsieur On Sait Qui (1982), by influential Polish theater director and happening artist Tadeusz Kantor; the five-channel video installation Big Hunt (2002) by Catherine Sullivan, who was trained as an actor as well as visual artist, and performance artist Guillermo Gómez-Peña’s photograph The Loneliness of the Immigrant (1979 - 2011).
James Jarvaise & Henry Taylor. Sometimes a straight line has to be crooked | Hauser & Wirth
Jun 29–Oct 5, 2025 (UTC-8)
Los Angeles
‘Sometimes a straight line has to be crooked’ is the first exhibition to put the work of Henry Taylor, one of today’s most celebrated painters, in dialogue with that of his teacher, California modernist James Jarvaise (1924 – 2015). Taylor explores an idea he has long carried: to pay homage to Jarvaise—an artist who saw something special in him as a student in the 1980s—through an exhibition. Composed along loosely thematic lines and consisting largely of paintings, this major installation spans the 1950s to the present, with new works created especially for the show by Taylor, whose interest in landscape, alongside the figure, is freshly explored. The first exhibition of Taylor’s work to take place at Hauser & Wirth in Los Angeles, the title is taken from advice Jarvaise imparted to his student: the words of a vital teacher who offered Taylor many lessons on how to build a painting with integrity.
Luchita Hurtado. Yo Soy | Hauser & Wirth
Jun 29–Oct 5, 2025 (UTC-8)
Los Angeles
Over the course of her eight-decade career, Venezuelan-born, Los Angeles-based artist Luchita Hurtado (1920 – 2020) committed to a lifelong journey of personal and artistic evolution defined by ceaseless experimentation. The first exhibition devoted to the artist at Hauser & Wirth in Los Angeles, ‘Yo Soy’ (I Am) brings together paintings and drawings from a pivotal moment in Hurtado’s career: Inspired by the surge of feminist activism in LA, the artist held her first solo exhibition at the Woman’s Building in February 1974, debuting her Linear Language series of expressive, geometric word paintings. A half century on, ‘Yo Soy’ revisits that landmark presentation and includes never-before-seen works from the series it introduced. Through her vibrant, abstract canvases—some cut up and meticulously resewn—visitors will be able to experience the depth of Hurtado’s exploration of pattern, mysticism, the earth and the cosmos.
Lines of Connection: Drawing and Printmaking 训 | The Getty
Jul 1–Sep 14, 2025 (UTC-8)
Los Angeles
In Europe, drawing and printmaking have rich interconnected histories evolving from the 15th century—when drawing and printing on paper rose to prominence—to the 19th, when photography and notions of originality significantly altered their relationship. This major loan exhibition tells the story of how artists have worked creatively on paper, crossing boundaries between media and challenging traditions. In addition, see large-scale prints and drawings by LA-based Toba Khedoori, who works across the two media.
Y.Z. Kami《The Domes》 | Beverly Hills
Jul 8–Aug 8, 2025 (UTC-8)
Beverly Hills
Gagosian Beverly Hills is hosting Y.Z. Kami’s latest solo exhibition of paintings, “The Domes,” which brings together two of his most important series: the “Dome” series that he has developed since 2011, and a new series, the “Messenger” series. The exhibition will run until August 8.
Ground Work | Los Angeles
Jul 17–Aug 30, 2025 (UTC-8)
Los Angeles
Sean Kelly, Los Angeles presents Ground Work, a group exhibition organized by Los Angeles-based curator and Executive Director of The Cultivist, Joey Lico. The exhibition brings together fifteen artists whose works respond to the material, psychic, and political dimensions of landscape. Anchored by Duchamp’s seminal photograph Dust Breeding, 1920, Ground Work considers the trace as a radical gesture, foregrounding atmosphere, residue, and the weight of absence over pictorial representation. As Lico states, the artists “gather materials touched by time—ashes, dust, silence, memory—and offer us not declarations, but traces. This is not a show about landscape. It is about what it means to inhabit one.”

Experiencing the Higher Realms with Michael Hayes & Alisha Das Hayes | Peace Awareness Labyrinth
Jul 19, 2025 (UTC-7)
City of Los Angeles
What lies beyond the Soul Realm?
How can we know what cannot be mentally grasped—only spiritually remembered?
To speak of the realms beyond the Soul is to step into a sacred paradox. These levels of existence are beyond memory, beyond mind, and beyond words. And yet, you can know them—
Not through thought, but through direct spiritual experience.
Not through belief, but through inner awakening.
Though we may not always be aware of it, our truest nature is already anchored in these transcendent levels, even as we live and move through this world. There is a divine current—a loving force of God—that flows from beyond all planes into every level of creation. It carries perfect remembrance and offers that truth to each of us.
The master who supported us in awakening to this reality called this presence the Mystical Traveler Consciousness.
Saturday, July 19, 2025 we invite you to join us for a profoundly experiential and mystical workshop designed to help you directly access this deeper truth.
What’s Included:
Clearing of blocks, egoic distraction and fear from experiencing levels above soul
Collective energy and intention for direct experience of realms beyond the Soul
Video excerpts from John-Roger offering esoteric insights into the higher realms
A mystical talk with Michael and Alisha to explore and illuminate these esoteric teachings
A deeply immersive guided meditation to experience the higher realms
Inspiration and motivation to deepen your spiritual exercises and renew your spiritual commitment
A brief but powerful inner exercise
Mystical Q&A — including opportunities to ask personal questions about how you can experience these realms and integrate that awareness into daily life
A loving and joyful, community, both in person and online
A nourishing snack is provided
This will be our last MSIA workshop for now, and we are joyfully donating 100% of the proceeds in gratitude for all that MSIA has given.
This gathering is not about belief—it’s about knowing. A knowing that transcends thought. A remembrance that rises from within.
If your heart is stirred, we welcome you to join us in this sacred space of loving, light, and awakening.
With love and presence,
Alisha and Michael

William Klein's MR. FREEDOM (1968) - A Savage Pop Art Satire! | Philosophical Research Society
Jul 19, 2025 (UTC-7)
City of Los Angeles
As part of their July series "US Tour," 7th House is proud to present
William Klein
's brazen and bonkers pop art 60s satire
MR. FREEDOM
(1968)! Indefatigably irreverent, eye-poppingly colorful, and surrealistically silly, this underseen oddity is
an eagle-eyed, no-holds-barrred takedown of American imperialism and jingoistic nationalism like none other!
1968: As the war in Vietnam reached its peak with the most US troop deployments and casualties since the conflict began, American expatriate fashion photographer turned filmmaker William Klein (who never returned home after being stationed in France in WWII) cast his brilliant and incisive eye on the Made in the U.S. brand of toxic Manifest Destiny machismo he saw as a threat to everyone, world over. Combining the sardonic absurdity of the mod fashion mockumentary he's perhaps best known for –
WHO ARE YOU, POLLY MAGOO?
(1966)
–
and the radical political fervor of his pro North Vietnamese Army collaboration (with Godard, Varda, Marker, Resnais and more)
FAR FROM VIETNAM
(1967), Klein unleashed his hilarious, vicious lampoon of imperialist American foreign policy:
Mr. Freedom (
John Abbey
), a bellowing good-ol'-boy superhero decked out in copious football padding, jets to France to cut off a Commie invasion from Switzerland. A destructive, arrogant patriot in tight pants, Freedom joins forces with Marie Madeleine (a satirically sexy
Delphine Seyrig
) to combat lefty freethinkers, as well as the insidious evildoers Moujik Man and inflatable Red China Man, culminating in a star-spangled showdown of kitschy excess. Delightfully crass, is a trenchant, rib-tickling takedown of gaudy modern Americana.
Featuring cameos from
Donald Pleasance, Serge Gainsbourg
and more,
MR. FREEDOM
is a one-of-a-kind, bold, bright, brash, and bizarre sendup that is, alas and frightneningly, just as relevant today as it was nearly 60 years ago.
Dir. William Klein, 1968, 92 mins, France, English, Unrated (Adult Audiences Only), Digital.
