BLUEPRINT

JULIA ROONEY - a solo exhibition

11 NOVEMBER - 23 DECEMBER 2023



LOS ANGELES
- Band of Vices is pleased to present Blueprint, an exhibition of new paintings by New York-based artist Julia Rooney. The Exhibition will open with a public reception on the 11th of November and will be accompanied by a printed catalogue, which includes an essay by Yechen Zhao, Assistant Curator of Photography and Media at the Art Institute of Chicago. This marks Rooney’s first exhibition with the Gallery, on view 11 November - 23 December, 2023.

In an era when paintings are routinely photographed for their consumption on Instagram, online viewing rooms, and websites, Rooney posits, “What if instead of being photographed, a painting could make its own photograph?”

“Julia Rooney approaches the canvas from an historic, photographic process to dissect and reexamine our digital world, only to propel us into a more futuristic outlook. While intellectual in thought, the works evoke an introspective examination”. - Terrell Tilford, Creative Director
