Opening on May 2, 2024, Miles McEnery Gallery, in

Opening on May 2, 2024, Miles McEnery Gallery, in collaboration with The Pacific Design Center Design Gallery, presents Wrapture, a survey of Jim Isermann’s vinyl decal and painting work from 1986 to present. The exhibition will be on view at The PDC through June 29, 2024, open to the public Tuesday through Saturday from 10:00AM - 6:00PM. A reception celebrating the artist and Pride Week will be held on Thursday May 30, 2024 from 3:00-7:00PM.

.

In Wrapture, vinyl decals cover the walls and stairs of the gallery, installed as immersive backgrounds for Isermann’s canvas and panel works. Creating a dialogue between the artwork and the building itself, the wallworks emphasize Isermann’s embrace of utopian idealism in its many aesthetic and functional forms, encompassing visitors as they explore the exhibition.

.

Focused on primary and secondary colors, the works reverberate off of each other with repeated mathematically-rendered pattern and line work—from Op art polygonal structures to flower motifs. Both the decal and painting works exemplify Isermann’s practice of bringing together “high” and “low” art styles, giving a fresh look at the decorative potential of geometric abstraction to reveal the symbiotic relationship between fine and functional art.

.

Wrapture will be on view during Los Angeles’ and West Hollywood’s Pride Week celebrations. Rooted in queerness and camp aesthetics, Isermann’s practice amalgamates his personal identity with structural logic and geometric algorithms. With a desire to upend the restrictions of domestic space, he challenges the historically-gendered lens of the Minimalism, Bauhaus, and Arts and Craft movements.
