Robert Nava on Bringing Monstrosity to Life

Published Thursday, Feb 20, 2025

In this new film, artist Robert Nava speaks about The Monster, a group presentation he has curated at our Los Angeles gallery. Here, Nava sheds light on the conceptual underpinnings of the show and speaks about the works on view, including sculptures by Paul Thek, a photograph by Cindy Sherman, and paintings by Carroll Dunham and Rashid Johnson. Neither entirely human nor animal, the monster, Nava says, "could be the thing you're scared of but want to know more about, or something normal and unassuming."
