DAVID LEGGETT – WE GOT FOOD AT HOME
2021-08-09This solo exhibition by Los Angeles-based David Leggett features recent paintings that continue his use of pop culture imagery, bright colors and soft materials to prompt discussion on topics such as race and class that are often difficult to confront. He combines text composed of letters cut from felt with cartoon images to invite viewers in so that they might take a closer look and ask serious questions. According to Leggett, “I leave things open so as not to pick a side. Other artists that make political work often want to convince the viewer of their view. I have no interest in that.”
