LINDSEY WARREN: Los Angeles Light
Exhibition Dates and Reception TBA - Postponed until September 2020

PRESS RELEASE
FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

George Billis gallery is pleased to announce Los Angeles Light, Los Angeles native Lindsey Warren's first solo show with the gallery. In this recent body of work, Warren examines the urban and suburban landscapes of Los Angeles through dramatic and fleeting light that produces unique color experiences. The paintings affectionately represent the California city from a variety of perspectives, generating an overall portrait and vibrant interpretation of the sprawling city.

Warren writes of her recent work, "Since returning to Los Angeles in 2015, I have been focusing on representing the magical light and diverse environments of this city, resulting in portraits of viewpoints and neighborhoods that I frequent and love." Her love of Los Angeles is evident in her words and in her paintings alike. Each piece is born from layers of paint, until Warren reaches an impressive level of precision. Warren writes that she works by "constantly adding and subtracting visual elements," a systematic processes which mimics the way human memory functions to translate any specific moment in time.

Warren's history of working as a public artist, creating murals in cities on the East coast, clearly informs her painting practice. Warren uses her deep understanding of built and natural landscapes to transform scenes into flat blocks of color, a process that transports viewers through the streets of Los Angeles. Her paintings leave a familiar impression, as if you too have visited the place Warren depicts.
