Michael Stamm
“so super sorry sir!” 16 Jan - 6 Mar 2021 Shulamit Nazarian is pleased to present ”so super sorry sir!”, a series of new paintings by New York-based artist Michael Stamm. This will be the artist’s first solo exhibition with the gallery.
The paintings in “so super sorry sir!” revel in their idiosyncratic, contradictory attitude toward morality, sexuality, mental health, and the contemporary political landscape. An unlikely cast of characters––ranging from the Devil to an anthropomorphic hand––play at virtuosity, aspire towards goodness, and attempt to experience a coherent feeling. At once clinging to life and hurtling toward annihilation, the artist questions what self-actualization looks like in the face of an overly righteous and emotionally precarious world. Read more -
Cammie Staros
What Will Have Being 16 Jan - 6 Mar 2021 Shulamit Nazarian is pleased to present What Will Have Being, a series of new sculptures by Los Angeles-based artist Cammie Staros. This will be the artist’s second solo exhibition with the gallery.
The artworks in What Will Have Being draw the relics of fallen empires into discourse with contemporary political and environmental instabilities, considering the legacy of our species on this planet. Creating a throughline between ancient past and possible future, the works suggest a museological exhibition of antiquities that has been forgotten and reclaimed by nature. Through twists on Greco-Roman works in ceramic and stone, and gestures that upend traditional display tactics – such as melting light fixtures, architectural interventions, and submerged vessels – the artist asks us to consider how we understand both the objects and ourselves along an unfixed or perhaps unmoored timeline.

Wendell Gladstone
Safe Haven 14 Nov - 19 Dec 2020 Shulamit Nazarian is pleased to present Safe Haven, a series of new paintings by Los Angeles- based Wendell Gladstone. This will be the artist’s second solo exhibition with the gallery.
The new paintings in Safe Haven continue the artist’s interest in surreal and psychologically charged spaces, often populated with a cast of humans, animals, and hybrid forms. Expanding upon the idea of a ‘haven’, or a place of refuge, this exhibition conjures the varying degrees in which tenderness and precariousness overlap. Binaries blur between intermingled bodies— what is understood as interior and exterior, bound and liberated, giving and receiving, fluidly shift within a single work. This series examines an unfolding relationship between human connection, power, and safety through notions of gazing and physical contact.
Giving license to his subconscious to guide the narratives and structure, the paintings allow for Jungian archetypes and parables of the past to mix with the artist’s personal experience and the zeitgeists of today—culminating in a body of work which shifts mythologically into the present and champions the potential for lucidity to provide a sense of clarity in unsettling times.

Naama Tsabar
Inversions 10 Jan - 29 Feb 2020 Naama Tsabar has become known for her ambitious installations, performances, and sculptures that parse the boundaries of spaces that surround us—both physical and metaphorical—for which we normally have no access. Cutting into walls and treating hidden interiors as sculptural and musical spaces, Tsabar considers the venues themselves as structures of power, enabling a display of fantasy, sexuality, and bravado. Tsabar upends the implicit gender roles and coded behavior of music and its related subcultures. Read more -
Annie Lapin
Strange Little Beast 9 Nov - 21 Dec 2019 Annie Lapin’s paintings call attention to the human desire for meaning making–our effort to create order out of chaos.

This will be the artist’s first solo exhibition with the gallery.

Roommates
Chris Bogia, Woody De Othello, Rachel Granofsky, and Michael Stamm 20 Jul - 31 Aug 2019 Shulamit Nazarian is pleased to present Roommates, an exhibition of works by Chris Bogia, Woody De Othello, Rachel Granofsky, and Michael Stamm. These artists investigate the domestic space as a psychological, and at times psychedelic realm. Drawing from a variety of sources and forms that evoke a sense of home, these artists embed objects and environments with the peculiarities of living beings, illustrating our relationship to possessions that share our most intimate spaces. Like the dancing furniture in Disney’s Fantasia, subject and object wiggle back and forth with a magical realism. The home dweller melts into the sofa, while objects begin to take on a life of their own – all achieved through means similarly found in cartoon animation: flatness, movement, and artifice.

The Project Room
Amir H. Fallah, Nasim Hantehzadeh, Jennie Jieun Lee, and Fay Ray 1 Jun - 13 Jul 2019 Shulamit Nazarian is proud to present The Project Room, an exhibition featuring new works by Los Angeles artists Amir H. Fallah, Nasim Hantehzadeh, Jennie Jieun Lee, and Fay Ray.
Reconsidering the gallery’s interior architecture, The Project Room subdivides the exhibition space into four individual solo presentations, each centered on a new large-scale drawing, painting, or sculpture. Project rooms have long played a pivotal role in allowing artists to experiment with new modes of artistic production and methods of display. With this in mind, the exhibition brings together multiple, disparate visions under one roof, illustrating the various ways in which this context allows for conceptual liberties and new insights into an artist’s practice.

Wendy White
Racetrack Playa 13 Apr - 25 May 2019 Shulamit Nazarian is pleased to announce representation of New York-based artist Wendy White. The artist’s first solo exhibition in Los Angeles, Racetrack Playa, will feature new paintings, sculptures, pigment prints, and a site-specific installation.
The exhibition takes its name from a three-mile dry lakebed in Death Valley National Park where sliding rocks or “sailing stones” have inscribed mysterious linear imprints on the landscape. Using this scarred landscape as a metaphor for our current times, the works in Racetrack Playa explore power, entitlement, and imperialism via the aesthetics and evolution of American car culture.

Close to Home
Erica Deeman, Mark McKnight, Eva O'Leary, and Larry Sultan 2 Mar - 6 Apr 2019 Shulamit Nazarian is proud to present, Close to Home, a group exhibition of four photographers that mine their personal experiences–past and present–to express moments of intimacy within larger social and political structures.

Summer Wheat
Catch and Release 8 Sep - 27 Oct 2018 Shulamit Nazarian is pleased to present Catch and Release, a solo exhibition by Brooklyn-based artist Summer Wheat. This will be the artist’s first solo exhibition in Los Angeles.
Wheat’s paintings present a tradition in which women were the original hunters, technologists, and artists, and Catch and Release continues her exploration of this archetype and its many variations. The series depicts women catching and releasing fish as a symbol of fertility, creation, and transformation. In connecting to water and its creatures, the subjects demonstrate an inherent link to natural elements and to the intricate depths of the unconscious. Read more -
From Pangs to Pangolins
2 Jun - 14 Jul 2018 "The pangolin is an actual creature that seems to be the stuff of childhood myth. It bears a resemblance to an armadillo and a lizard, but is neither. It also seems to be prehistoric—a living fossil. I swear I've seen this creature attached to essays on dinosaurs. Maybe it's a baby dragon-thing. Pangolins also would fit right in with descriptions of cryptids and other mythological beasts. The artists in this show are pangolins.”

Fay Ray
I AM THE HOUSE 7 Apr - 26 May 2018 Shulamit Nazarian is pleased to present I AM THE HOUSE, a series of new photographs and sculptures by Los Angeles-based Fay Ray. This will be the artist’s first solo exhibition with the gallery.
I AM THE HOUSE continues Ray’s interest in the fetishization of objects and the construction of female identity through high-contrast, monochromatic photomontages and suspended metallic sculptures. Throughout this series, she situates the body as a vessel, one that carries life, physical memories, and emotional fortitude. Read more -

Read more -
Wendell Gladstone
Fever Pitch 6 Jan - 17 Feb 2018 Shulamit Nazarian is pleased to present Fever Pitch, a series of new paintings by Los Angeles-based Wendell Gladstone. This will be the artist’s first solo exhibition with the gallery.
Over the past decade, Gladstone has produced figurative paintings that evoke dream-like spaces, free from the logic that typically governs traditional representation. He uses allegory and metaphor to examine a wide swath of cultural references—from art history to contemporary politics and personal experience—and allows his subconscious to guide the narratives. Read more -
Cammie Staros
les vases communicants 11 Nov - 27 Dec 2017 Shulamit Nazarian is pleased to present Los Angeles-based artist Cammie Staros’ first exhibition with the gallery, les vases communicants. The exhibition’s title references surrealist André Breton’s 1932 essay by the same name, which in turn borrows it from the scientific principle of “communicating vessels.” Looking specifically to the shapely vessels of Classical Greece, the artist’s hand-built objects marry ancient ceramic techniques with modern industrial materials such as neon and machined metals. The resulting sculptures are rooted in history, yet disarmingly present. Read more -
Amir H. Fallah
A Stranger In Your Home 23 Sep - 4 Nov 2017 Shulamit Nazarian is pleased to present A Stranger In Your Home, a series of new works by Amir H. Fallah. This will be the artist’s first solo exhibition with the gallery.
Working with the diverse immigrant community in his home city of Los Angeles, the artist creates portraits that investigate feelings of being an outsider in the very place you call home. In these paintings, Fallah deftly integrates both personal and collective narratives. Against the backdrop of a growing national sentiment that immigrants do not belong in this country, he mines the precarity of belonging in the United States. Read more -
Not/Normal
12 Aug - 9 Sep 2017 Shulamit Nazarian is pleased to present Not/Normal, a group exhibition curated in collaboration with Ceci Moss, including works by David Berezin, Janaye Brown, Kevin Jerome Everson, Steffani Jemison, Owen Kydd, and Nicolas Provost. Read more -

Read more -
Broken Language
25 May - 1 Jul 2017 Shulamit Nazarian is pleased to present Broken Language, an exhibition featuring four artists whose works operate within coded systems of visual communication. These artists utilize fractured letterforms, emojis, trademarks, commercial illustrations, and icons in a process that dismisses linear narrative in favor of non-hierarchical structures of language. Collectively, the work builds on millennia of visual storytelling—from hieroglyphs to narrative paintings to corporate logos— transcending cultural boundaries and linguistic constraints. Read more -
Escape Attempts
17 Feb - 8 Apr 2017 Inaugurating its new Hollywood location, Shulamit Nazarian presents Escape Attempts, a group exhibition of seven international artists working in dialogue with the legacy of minimal art. Carmen Argote, Susan Hefuna, Cindy Hinant, Alex McQuilkin, Sarah Meyohas, Virginia Overton, and Naama Tsabar present work that both acknowledges and subverts the practice of their predominately male forebears including Sol Lewitt, Donald Judd, and Larry Bell.
The artists in Escape Attempts employ the formal elements associated with Minimalism. Reduced color palettes and the repetition of simple geometric forms, as well as industrial materials that have a symbiotic relationship to architecture, create new mash-ups that mix formal rigor with sensuality, subjectivity, personal narrative, and contemporary sexual politics. Read more -
Reuven Israel
As Above, So Below 14 Sep - 11 Nov 2016 Shulamit Nazarian is pleased to present As Above, So Below, a solo exhibition of new sculptures by Brooklyn-based artist Reuven Israel, marking the artist’s first solo presentation in Los Angeles.
In this new body of work, Israel continues his sculptural practice that directly engages with form and color, drawing from myriad cultural references that range from religious monuments to science fiction. These sources amalgamate into autonomous abstract sculptures that simultaneously feel familiar––due to the employment of a rich range of signifiers––yet unhinged to any particular context. Read more -
Phantom Limb
4 Aug - 9 Sep 2016 Shulamit Nazarian is pleased to present Phantom Limb, an exhibition featuring five artists whose works operate between figuration and abstraction. The term phantom limb describes the illusion of feeling a body part when the actual limb is missing, and the works in this exhibition speak to the felt presence of the body released from a representation of the figure. The artists explore constructions of personal narrative, specific moments of cultural upheaval, the complexity of human psychology, and the physicality of the body itself. Read more -
Shapeshifters
4 Jun - 22 Jul 2016 Curated by Tim Goossens, Shapeshifters is an intergenerational exhibition that features the work of artists, activists, and musicians who use alter egos as tools for change and survival.
