Channa Horwitz is regarded as an important proponent of Conceptual Art and West Coast Minimalism who has influenced generations of sound, music, movement, dance and light artists, although she only received endorsement and acclaim later in her life. Her fifth exhibition at Lisson Gallery but first in China highlights Horwitz’s rigorous conceptual structures, self-determined rules, and explorations of systems and line. This presentation follows her solo exhibition in Lisson Gallery New York from 3 March – 16 April 2022.
Born in 1932 in Los Angeles, where she lived and worked for her entire life, Channa Horwitz studied graphic design in the early 1950s at Art Center College of Design and Fine Art at Cal State Northridge in the early 1960s. In 1972 she received a BFA from the California Institute of the Arts in Valencia, California.




Established in 1967 in London, Lisson Gallery is one of the most well-known galleries operating globally. Boasting an influential and continuing legacy, including playing a pivotal role in the careers of many pioneers of historically important art movements, the gallery works with some of the most significant contemporary artists today.
