David Horvitz
TARO NASU is pleased to announce a solo exhibition “Is it too confusing?” by American artist David Horvitz, internationally active and currently based in Los Angeles, opening on July 5.
Horvitz’s practice—rooted in photography, language, books, and performance—persistently seeks out diverse and unconventional forms of artistic expression that transcend the traditional confines of the white cube. At the core of his multifaceted oeuvre lies a critical engagement with issues endemic to contemporary society, imbuing his work with a profound sense of perspective and introspection.
Influenced by artists such as Bas Jan Ader and On Kawara, Horvitz has long endeavored to render visible that which is inherently intangible—time, memory, and their inevitable erasure—through a variety of conceptual and material approaches.
This exhibition will feature a comprehensive presentation of the “Nostalgia” series, one of Horvitz’s long-standing and ongoing projects, in its complete form using slide projection and text on the wall. In addition, the exhibition will include a new neon work reflecting on the two pivotal moments of human existence—birth and death—as well as an homage to On Kawara’s seminal Date Paintings. Together, these works invite contemplation on the nature of lived time—what we often perceive and experience as the cadence of the everyday.
