Sarah Morris's huge wall painting, her largest yet,
is this time based on the architecture of Los Angeles.

Her paintings and wall drawings present graphically reduced details of the building facades as structural all-over linear grids. Whilst they formally resonate with the rationalist modernist strategies running from Piet Mondrian to Peter Halley, for Morris their formal reduction is the product of a semiotically distilled reference to the urban world.

Sarah Morris, was born in 1967
She lives in New York & London
