Nate Lowman

In an exhibition of new works, Nate Lowman has created a series surrounding the 2017 Las Vegas shooting, during which a gunman attacked civilians in attendance at the Route 91 Harvest Festival—an act of terror resulting in 59 deaths. Based on cursory photos taken at the scene of the crime, Lowman’s paintings depict uneasily mundane scenes that, at once, reveal and hide the violent context of his sources—via scenes like a neat hotel room with large firearms laid across the bed.
