Lesley Vance: Painting 2013-2019

This book is a monograph of Lesley Vance’s work, it is not specifically published for CMA’s exhibition: Lesley Vance: Always Circled Whirling on view April 21-September 3, 2013.

It is easy to lose yourself in the fluid abstractions of painter Lesley Vance (born 1977). With quick gestures and hard contours, the Los Angeles-based artist creates swirling, interwoven forms that both delight and disorient the eye. 

Vance’s oil paintings and watercolors since 2013 are here collected in a beautifully illustrated monograph, with a lengthy new essay on the artist and her practice by Douglas Fogle, former chief curator of the Hammer Museum, as well as an artist interview with writer Amy Sherlock. Lesley Vance: Painting 2013–2019 presents a stunning body of radical new works by this masterful painter.
