Ryan Preciado Presents Solo Exhibition at Frank Lloyd Wright's Hollyhock House

exhibition · 2026-03-31

Los Angeles artist Ryan Preciado is presenting a solo exhibition titled 'Diary of A Fly' at Frank Lloyd Wright's Hollyhock House, running through April 25. The exhibition features a collection of personal works that blend art and design, reflecting Preciado's Mexican and Chumash heritage. Key pieces include the steel sculpture 'Eight Different Ways' (2025) installed in the central courtyard, a series of woven tapestries titled 'In the Flat Field,' and furniture influenced by the Memphis Milano movement. Preciado collaborated with Zapotec weavers in Oaxaca to create the tapestries, his first works in textiles. The exhibition also includes a musical component with composer Spencer Gerhardt, and features works by other artists including Matt Connors. Hollyhock House, designed by Frank Lloyd Wright in the 1910s for oil heiress Aline Barnsdall, is a UNESCO World Heritage Site that represents California modernism. Preciado's exhibition engages with the architectural legacy of the house while creating what he describes as 'a small ecosystem' of different practices and materials coexisting in the space.
