For Frieze LA 2025 (Focus Booth F12), Dreamsong is pleased to present new paintings by Edgar Arceneaux (b. 1972, Los Angeles) made in Minneapolis during a 2024 residency organized by the Walker Art Center. Expanding on the artist's Skinning the Mirror series, the Minneapolis paintings allude to a changing climate and mark a departure towards a distinct sense of place and landscape. Underpinning the series is a rigorous practice spanning over twenty years that explores race and collective memory by interrogating American historical narratives and probing their gaps, omissions, and failures.

Edgar Arceneaux, Skinning the Mirror (Summer 1), 2025 (detail). Acrylic paint, silver nitrate, glass on canvas. 80 x 120 x 3 in.
