Garis & Hahn is pleased to present A Piebald Era, marking Downtown Los Angeles-based painter Lisa Adams’s debut solo show with the gallery. The exhibition will open on January 12 and remain on view through February 16, 2019. There will be an opening reception for the artist on Saturday, January 12, from 5 to 8pm.

Occupying the liminal space between abstraction and representation, the imaginary and the real, Adams’s highly original paintings depict scenes which lie at the intersection where nature meets the brutality of the human-made, as filtered through a uniquely otherworldly prism. Derived from photographs and experiences as well as her personal imaginings, Adams’s idiosyncratic paintings are an admixture of fact and fantasy, amalgamated fragments manifesting in a disjointed whole, a skewed world that is seemingly falling apart.
