Sprüth Magers

The gallery is honored to present the first solo show in Los Angeles by Kaari Upson in over a decade, and the first in the United States since her death in 2021. Titled by the artist, the exhibition debuts a remarkable series of sculptures and works on canvas created between 2020 and 2021, in which Upson’s stirring characters, symbols and marks materialize through an array of painterly gestures; as well as examples from other recent series and installations that will receive their American premiere. Together, the works demonstrate the artist’s unwavering urge to interpret the psyches and psychoses of our complex contemporary lives.
