la BEAST gallery is proud to present Et in Arcadia ego, a solo exhibition of new paintings by Loren Burke. In this wide-ranging body of work, Burke confronts the tension between paradise and mortality. Drawn from the Latin phrase often translated as “Even in Arcadia, there I am,” the title reminds us that death inhabits even the most idyllic landscapes. In Burke’s hands, Arcadia becomes Los Angeles, a place of glowing color, theatrical desire, and latent darkness.
