The exhibition Empress of the Night by Marcel Dzama at David Zwirner in Los Angeles consists of nocturnal-themed paintings and drawings. It encapsulates a ritualistic feel associated with the night. A significant element of the show is Dzama's 2023 film To live on the Moon (For Lorca), which is presented in a large format, encouraging visitor interaction. Additionally, select drawings are illuminated in a way that complements the film's thematic elements, contributing to the exhibition's enchanting atmosphere.
A centerpiece of the exhibition is Dzama's 2023 film To live on the Moon (For Lorca), which was originally commissioned by Performa for that year's iteration of the recurring performance festival in New York.
Select drawings adorn the walls, dramatically illuminated to echo the film's lyrical and hypnotic tone.
