Chris Sharp Gallery is is pleased to present a solo booth of the Los Angeles-based painter, Tyler Vlahovich.

Something of a cult figure of the LA art scene, Tyler Vlahovich and his abstract painting defy easy categorization. His reverently irreverent work is known to take place on a variety of supports, ranging from canvas to irregularly shaped pieces of wood as well as found cardboard and paper. As a long-time dabbler in electronic music, Vlahovich approaches picture making the way an improviser builds on a given motif, allowing it to flow and mutate as he elaborates and fixes it into form. The connections between different bodies of work have less to do with imagery than with style, mark making, and the exuberant spirit of the overall practice. As such, his idiosyncratic non-brand of abstraction is altogether fluid, protean, and full of felicitous surprises.
