PST Art gets rolling: L.A. Arts and culture this week

By Jessica Gelt and Ashley Lee

Lita Albuquerque’s fourth exhibition at the Michael Kohn Gallery utilizes white color pigments to honor the experience of light-reflecting materials in nature, like salt and snow. The PST Art offering includes a new series of paintings revolving around the gestures of the body and ancient marks and a small figurative sculpture, all displayed “where the gallery’s concrete floor looks as though it has been meticulously removed revealing the earth below,” she said in a statement. (Elsewhere in PST, Albuquerque has an installation in CalTech’s “Crossing Over” exhibit and, later this month, a reimagining of the Malibu Line, her first ephemeral pigment earthwork and one of her most famous works to date.)
