Christina Quarles 2026
published: 11 Feb 2026, 2 min read
when: 24 Feb 2026 - 03 May 2026 | venue: Hauser & Wirth | address: 901 E 3rd Street, Los Angeles 90013In February 2026, we will present Christina Quarles’ first exhibition with the gallery in Los Angeles. Created in the wake of the wildfires in Altadena, the artist’s latest body of work reflects an acute sense of displacement—geographical, emotional and corporeal.
Quarles is admired for the dynamism and power with which she manipulates paint and surface; with the new paintings in this exhibition, she continues to test the expressive and physical limits of her medium. Kinetic planes of color, texture and pattern evoke architectural and digital realms, while wrenching human forms seem to bend and fold as if by centrifugal force. Denser and more frenetic than Quarles’ earlier works, these canvases compress time and place with heightened intensity. At its core, her practice contemplates the instability of existence, the extent of resilience and what it means to inhabit multiple realities at once.
