press release

artist profile
L.A. Louver is pleased to present Pictures in the Garden, an exhibition of gouache paintings by acclaimed sculptor Matt Wedel. In this presentation two distinct bodies of work reveal formal and thematic dimensions of Wedel’s oeuvre involving time and space, metaphor, and mythology.

This exhibition culminates two significant moments for the artist in the last year. From November 2022 to April 2023 the Toledo Museum of Art presented Matt Wedel: Phenomenal Debris, a solo exhibition that included over one hundred sculptural artworks and works on paper created over the last decade. Also in 2023, Wedel participated in a two-part artist residency at the Honolulu Museum of Art during which he developed new ceramic works and the gouaches of the Hawaii Series.
