BLUE HIGHWAY

24 August - October 12, 2024


de boer | Los Angeles
3311 E. Pico Blvd. Los Angeles, CA 90023

de boer (Los Angeles) is pleased to present Blue Highway by Belgium-based artist Koen van den Broek. This is Van den Broek’s second solo exhibition with the gallery, where he continues his investigation and representations of the built environment. Described by John C. Welchman as  “consequentially “abstract” in appearance [and] scrupulously wise to the street,” Van den Broek’s new paintings represent a profound evolution where they are made with the same tar and traffic paint used to repair and mark the road.
