Images from Lari Pittman’s From A Late Western Impaerium

From the Regen Projects press release:

Pittman’s From A Late Western Impaerium constructs a loose narrative of nationhood that travels between our present time and the distant past. The compositionally dense works play with the social and current realities of today, with an interest in ornamentation and surface, and draw on the legacy of history as told through the Western canon of painting and the applied arts. Pittman poses the question of what a contemporary “history painting” might be today.

For more information about Lari Pittman, check out this article in Artillery Magazine

The show is up until December 21, 2013.

Today (11/23) at Regen Projects there is also a Raymond Pettibon book signing from 4-6pm.
