Jonas Lund Flip City

Steve Turner Contemporary June 5 – July 3, 2014

Johas Lund’s Flip City opens today at Steve Turner Contemporary in Los Angeles. Flip City is a solo exhibition by the Amsterdam-based artist inspired by the current appetite for process-based abstraction; the related trend of collectors/investors buying such works to ‘flip’ them quickly for a profit; and the central role that Los Angeles has played in both realms.

For Flip City, Lund has created forty digital paintings, of which a selection will be on view during the run of the exhibition and the others will be presented at art fairs in Europe, Latin America and the United States during the next twelve months. Each work has elements sampled from paintings by other emerging artists, yet Lund’s works are so thoroughly remixed that only a very astute observer might see familiar passages. Lund will install a GPS tracking device on the stretcher bar of each painting so that he can track its movements and approximate whereabouts. He will also maintain a website with this information in the years to come.

If you’re in LA, check out this show and circle back here next week to see Jonas Lund’s work for Paddles ON! … the countdown begins!  Follow Jonas Lund on Twitter!
