LOS ANGELES, CA.- David Kordansky Gallery announced their representation of Shara Hughes in partnership with Galerie Eva Presenhuber, Zurich and New York, and Pilar Corrias, London. New work by Hughes will be featured in the gallery's presentation at Art Basel Miami Beach 2021, which will take place November 30 – December 4, 2021.

Hughes uses dizzying brushwork, vibrant colors, and shifting perspectives to make paintings that defy many of the existing conventions associated with the landscape genre. Natural motifs and patterned elements recur throughout Hughes’s pictures: snake-like trees, floating moons, distorted reflections in bodies of water, and stippled night skies appear in various permutations, synchronized with harder-to-define forms in which abstract and representational impulses co-exist in unorthodox harmony. Hughes’s process rarely involves reference images; instead, she transposes the psychological complexity of her interior world into lush and layered compositions. She often mixes pigment directly atop her surfaces, and in this way creates intuitive, one-of-a-kind color palettes that simultaneously point to art historical movements like color field painting and Post-Impressionism. As she engages with these open-ended experiments in image-making, Hughes depicts kaleidoscopic visions of flora and fauna in processes of constant evolution.

Shara Hughes (b. 1981, Atlanta) is the subject of forthcoming solo exhibitions at the Yuz Museum, Shanghai (opening November 2021) and Kunstmuseum Luzern, Switzerland (opening 2022), and was recently the subject of solo exhibitions at the Contemporary Art Museum St. Louis (2021); Garden Museum, London (2021); Aspen Museum of Art, Colorado (2021); and Le Consortium, Dijon, France (2021). Recent group exhibitions include The Beatitudes of Malibu, David Kordansky Gallery, Los Angeles (2021); America Will BE! Surveying the Contemporary Landscape, Dallas Museum of Art (2019); and Whitney Biennial 2017, Whitney Museum of American Art, New York. Her work is in the permanent collections of institutions including The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York; Denver Art Museum; High Museum of Art, Atlanta; M WOODS, Beijing; and Smithsonian American Art Museum, Washington, D.C., among others. Hughes lives and works in Brooklyn, New York.
