Lauren Mendelsohn-Bass
Fun and Games
Gallery 825, Los Angeles, CA
May 3 – June 6, 2025
Lauren Mendelsohn-Bass’ solo exhibition, Fun and Games, explores the nostalgic longing for an idealized world. Her work takes the viewer on a journey through a world of superficial reality where artificially alluring and nostalgically innocent context marks darker thought, ideas and actions. Through the appropriation of pop imagery and reference to classic childhood games, her paintings examine today’s culture where truth is fluid. Luscious color and the allure of nostalgia is expertly depicted with great detail in order to seduce the senses. The artist employs realism as a means to expose the lack of reality in socially constructed norms.
