Nasir Young: Nowhere/Everywhere

Uffner & Liu New York · Lower East Side / East Village
Exhibition on view: May 15, 2026 - Jul 2, 2026

In Nowhere/Everywhere, Nasir Young’s paintings investigate the built urban environment—its gas stations, storefronts, corner stores, and parking lots—as a visual language that is at once hyperlocal to his upbringing in Philadelphia and universally legible across American suburbia. Young, a lifelong skateboarder, experiences the city through shifting speeds and unexpected angles. His central conviction is that the vocabulary of a Philly rowhouse is the same as a Kansas City laundromat. In Young’s hands, the mundane becomes a portrait of collective life that rewards exactly the kind of sustained, unhurried attention he brings to it.
