For the 2024 edition of Frieze Los Angeles, 303 Gallery will exhibit a solo presentation of Rob Pruitt’s work, bringing together the artist's multidisciplinary practice including painting and sculpture.
Over the last decade, Pruitt has utilized gradient fields of color in different, evolving series of paintings. Early, gradient face paintings employ color symbolism to depict human emotion, and subsequent Suicide Paintings use gradients to form deep corridors of psychological space. With his multi-panel, Month of Sunsets paintings, gradients are used to depict the actual sunrise or sunset of a given day, dramatically mapping color on to time.
