3311 E. Pico Blvd., Los Angeles, CA 90023

de boer (Los Angeles) is pleased to present Simulacra, a solo exhibition of new paintings by Brooklyn based painter Ken Mar, his first with the gallery. Mar’s work makes use of nostalgia and pop culture iconography to engage in dialogue of larger queries such as simulation theory and Jean Baudrillard’s theory of ‘Precession of Simulacra’.
