Press Release

David Zwirner is pleased to announce an exhibition of new paintings by Belgian artist Luc Tuymans on view at the gallery’s 606 N Western Avenue location in Los Angeles. The Fruit Basket debuted at David Zwirner New York in November 2025, and this presentation marks the acclaimed artist’s first solo exhibition in LA. Collectively, the works on view consider the pervasive atmosphere of fracture that is specific to the United States at this moment. Foregrounding the highly mediated state of contemporary experience, Tuymans reinforces a growing sense of dissolution through varied subject matter and formal approaches.

About the Artist

Widely credited with having contributed to the revival of painting in the 1990s, Belgian artist Luc Tuymans continues to assert its relevance by addressing a diverse range of topics. Quiet, restrained, and at times unsettling, his works engage equally with questions of history and its representation as with quotidian subject matter cast in unfamiliar and eerie light. Painted from pre-existing imagery, they often appear slightly out-of-focus and sparsely colored, like third-degree abstractions from reality. Whereas earlier works were based on magazine pictures, drawings, television footage, and Polaroids, recent source images include material accessed online and the artist’s own iPhone photos, printed out and sometimes re-photographed several times.
