It features over 80 visual artists affected by the LA wildfires, with all proceeds benefiting the artists—a powerful exhibition of community resilience and artistic solidarity. It’s a notably poignant exhibition given the devastating impact of the fires.

Amelia Hernandez: Absolutely. Both Kelly Akashi’s show at the Lisson Gallery and Issy Wood’s exhibition at Michael Werner Gallery speak to this—in different ways. Akashi’s new works, on view through March 8th, powerfully recontextualize her artistry following the loss of her home and studio in the wildfires. While Issy Wood’s “Wet Reckless,” running through May 17th, presents a powerful, though less directly thematic, exploration of themes like destruction and resilience through evocative imagery of cars, guns, and other objects, reflecting perhaps the wider impact and uncertain aftermath of such events.
