Derek Eller Gallery is pleased to announce a dynamic group exhibition, presented at the gallery’s temporary space in Santa Monica, California. This special presentation brings together the work of a diverse group of contemporary artists whose practices span a range of media, approaches, and conceptual frameworks. By relocating from New York to the West Coast for this temporary initiative, the gallery seeks to engage new audiences and create fresh dialogues within a different cultural context, while continuing to champion the innovative voices that define its program.

The exhibition features works by Julia Bland, Scott Covert, Steve DiBenedetto, David Dupuis, Dan Fischer, Clare Grill, Iva Gueorguieva, EJ Hauser, Lachlan Hinwood, Ellen Lesperance, Kevin Lowenthal, Alyson Shotz, Despina Stokou, Austin Martin White, and Areum Yang. Collectively, these artists represent a cross-section of compelling visual languages—from intricate textile-based abstractions and conceptual reinterpretations of history to layered works exploring gesture, texture, and materiality. Each artist brings a distinct voice, and their contributions to the exhibition open a multifaceted conversation about contemporary artistic expression.

This group exhibition reflects Derek Eller Gallery’s ongoing commitment to presenting thought-provoking and rigorous work across generations and disciplines. By convening this varied group of artists under one roof, the gallery fosters an environment of discovery and exchange. The temporary Santa Monica location offers a unique opportunity to experience these works outside their usual context, encouraging a fresh perspective on the relationships between form, content, and place. Visitors can expect to encounter both established and emerging practices in a setting that invites contemplation, curiosity, and connection.
