Los Angeles hosts multiple exhibitions in July 2026 that address contemporary issues through art. 'Radical Kinship' features eight women artists exploring informal communal networks. Eva Aguila examines the roles of Mexican workers in the US through her family legacy. At Charlie James Gallery, Barbara Carrasco's career-spanning show 'On the Edge' presents new paintings of detained children with butterflies, alongside historical works highlighting her art-activism synthesis. At Cevera Yoon, Jaime Pattison and Maura Brewer create soundscapes and geometric abstractions from information economy tools. Vincent Ramos's 'Notice of Demolition' at as-is gallery uses assemblages and collages to explore Mexican-American cultural hybridity, referencing figures like Anthony Quinn and Linda Ronstadt. The Loved One, a new art bookshop and gallery co-founded by Hat & Beard Press and Wienholt Projects, opens with 'Erotic Terrains,' a group show of LA-based artists including Wyatt Mills, Alex McAdoo, and Francesca Gabbiani, exploring liminal spaces and the uncanny.
