Sofia Coppola Selects Favorite Works from Lisa Yuskavage's David Zwirner Show
Filmmaker Sofia Coppola has chosen four paintings from Lisa Yuskavage's recent exhibition at David Zwirner that left a lasting impression on her. The two artists, who share a fascination with the experience and aftermath of girlhood, were introduced years ago by art-world couple Rachel Feinstein and John Currin. Coppola, who owns a small Yuskavage lithograph, says she is drawn to the artist's work on an intuitive level, admiring her boldness and commitment to her own creative worlds. The selected works include 'Legend: Red Yellow Blue' (2024-25), 'Small Flesh Studio' (2022), 'Model with Skewer' (2025), and 'The Lesson' (2026). The feature appears in the 'Cult of Personality' issue of Cultured magazine, which also includes stories on the Hulu series 'The Shards', fashion's embrace of older models, photographer Jerry Hsu's new photobook, musician Troye Sivan's latest album, and a profile of Coppola herself.
