Fawn Rogers

Our current geological era is one giant crime scene and we’re all personally involved. It’s overwhelming at times, human nature in conflict with the natural world, a complex thrill and sorrow. I’m interested in harmony, has it ever existed?

— Fawn Rogers

Fawn Rogers, born in Portland, Oregon in 1974, is a Los Angeles-based contemporary artist. Through painting, photography, video, and sculptural installation, Rogers addresses the idea of power as the currency of human nature and the conflict with the natural world. In a geological epoch characterized by pandemic, climate crises, and rampant human rights abuses, Rogers dives into the seemingly contradictory forces at play within the heart of this time period where humanity has effected change we can no longer reverse. The work responds to the hard truths of living through the advanced stages of technological power amidst human brutality and indifference towards exploitation. Interested in social constructionism, Rogers' art recognizes a full range of existence, including violence, innocence, and invention.

Her aesthetic incorporates realism, conceptualism, and the synthesis of text and image. Straddling the line between still-life and portraiture, Rogers’ paintings appear deceivingly photorealistic from afar, while revealing the impressionistic intricacies of the painter’s hand upon closer examination.

She has shown her paintings, photographs, and conceptual installations in museums and galleries, alongside non-traditional locations, on five continents. Recent solo exhibitions include Come Ruin or Rapture, Galerie Marguo (Paris, 2023); GODOG, Lauren Powell Projects (Los Angeles 2023); Burn, Gleam, Shine, Galerie Marguo at K11 MUSEA (Hong Kong, 2023); Your Perfect Plastic Heart, Wilding Cran Gallery (Los Angeles, 2022); Violent Garden, The Lodge (Los Angeles, 2017); and Subject, Museum of Art and History (Lancaster, CA 2016). Select group exhibitions include Beach, Nino Mier Gallery (New York, 2023); L.A. Woman, Phillips (Los Angeles, 2023); My Body, My Business, Sotheby’s (New York, 2023); Art Paris 2023 Presentation, Galerie Marguo, (Paris, 2023); Solitude, Nexx Taipei (Taiwan, 2023); Boil Toil & Trouble, Art In Common (Miami, 2022); You Me Me You, Nicodim Gallery (Los Angeles, California, 2022); Holy Water, Eric Firestone Gallery (East Hampton, New York, 2022); Don’t Give Me Flowers, Praz-Delavallade (Los Angeles, California, 2022); Everything Has Its Place, Sevil Dolmaci (Istanbul, 2021); and Yes Yes it is Burning Me, Mykonos Biennale (Mykonos, Greece, 2019).

Her works are included in numerous public and private collections including Dakis Joannou Collection, Niarchos Family Collection, Pritzker Family Foundation, Lancaster Museum of Art and History (MOAH).
