Press Release

David Zwirner is pleased to present an exhibition of work by Nate Lowman (b. 1979), opening at the gallery’s 519 West 19th Street location in New York. The exhibition debuts a body of shaped canvases, paintings, and works on paper, among them canvases that take the form of keys—objects freighted with associations of access, security, and exclusion.

Lowman deftly mines images culled from art history, the news, and popular media, transforming visual signifiers from these distinct sources into a diverse body of paintings, sculptures, and installations. Since the early 2000s, the artist has continually pushed the boundaries of his multimedia approach with works that are at turns critical, humorous, political, and poetic. In his work, Lowman stages an encounter with commonplace, universally recognizable motifs, questioning and revisiting their intended meanings while creating new narratives in the process. The exhibition follows Lowman’s 2024 solo exhibition at David Zwirner Los Angeles, as well as his recent presentations at the Musée national Eugène Delacroix, Paris (2025) and the Museo Nacional de Bellas Artes, Buenos Aires (2024).
