Press Release

4301 W Jefferson Blvd is pleased to present Pattern Language, an exhibition of recent paintings by Peter Zellner & Tyler McMartin. Over 70 new works will be exhibited in a vast 5,000 square foot former industrial space along the West Adams gallery row in Los Angeles. 

Architects Zellner and McMartin have a 9-year working relationship. This is their first non-architectural collaboration.

With two sensibilities at play, Pattern Language exposes an interchange between abstraction and expression in painting: among the works and in communication with the viewer. The exhibition features medium to large-scale canvases and works on paper, displayed from the walls and floating over the gallery floor.

In the main gallery at 4301 W Jefferson Blvd, Zellner will show an exuberant, hyper-chromatic palette rendered in enamel, acrylic and tempera paints. McMartin will show evocative monochromes in specialty, intense black pigment. Precedent works will be on display in a project room accessed from Jefferson Boulevard.

Pattern Language is on view at 4301 W Jefferson Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90016 from Saturday, September 7th through Saturday, September 28th, 2019

4301 W Jefferson is open every Saturday in September, from 11:00 AM to 6:00 PM.

Viewings at other times may be scheduled by appointment.
