Thank you Gallery Platform LA for the thoughtful editorial regarding our current exhibition, DegreeZero: Utopia / Dystopia in Contemporary Art. Writers Chela Simón-Trench and Charley Goldstein provide a deep look into the history of Wonzimer, from its origins as a shared living room concept to its current role as a community space for experimentation. The piece offers a thorough examination of the curatorial vision provided by Constance Mallinson and Lawrence Gipe, specifically highlighting Mallinson’s accompanying essay and the complex, interdependent relationship between utopian ideals and contemporary decline. We are grateful for this insightful perspective on the thirteen artists involved and the continued evolution of our gallery mission. The full review is now available to read on Gallery Platform LA.

A big thank you to everyone that made it out for the opening of DegreeZero: Utopia/Dystopia in Contemporary Art Open Thursday - Sunday 12-7pm Exhibition Dates: April 24th - May 22nd, 2026 Curated by Lawrence Gipe and Constance Mallinson Exhibiting Artists: Lynn Aldrich @lynnaldrich_art Hilary Baker @hilarybakerstudio Austin Caswell @austinmcaswell Liz Cohen @lizcohenstudio Lawrence Gipe @lawrencegipe Beihua Guo @beihua_guo Mark Steven Greenfield @dawggie51 Kaya & Blank @kaya.blank Ben Jackel @bensantiquerestoration Constance Mallinson @makepaintinggreatagain Umar Rashid @frohawktwofeathers Marcos Serafim @marcosjserafim Keith Walsh @keith.walsh87 Wonzimer Gallery is proud to present “DegreeZero: Utopia/Dystopia in Contemporary Art”, a 13-artist group exhibition organized by artist-curators Lawrence Gipe and Constance Mallinson. The work presented in DegreeZero exists in the grey area between the oppositional, yet strangely fungible, states of Utopia and Dystopia; this is not an academic exercise, as it this theme might bring to mind the state of contemporary societies caught in, for example, a precarious balance between the ideals of democracy and totalitarianism. “Traditional views of Utopianism allow us to project ideal, humanitarian societies by imagining what might be but does not yet exist”, writes Mallinson from her essay for DegreeZero. “Without utopian idealism, one risks succumbing to Utopia’s co-equal sibling: Dystopia, loosely defined as the retreat/decline of progress and the prevalence of societies based totally on self-interest and the breakdown of shared goals. War, corruption, suffering, suppression, repression, and hopelessness are its chief characteristics.”

The exhibition “Imagined Realities and Unreal Fantasies,” curated by Alaia Parhizi, is now on view at the House of CoHit Gallery @houseofcohit in Hollywood Hills. The show features art by: Elias Hernandez @eliasxhernandez Robin Adsit @raadsit Alaia Parhizi @therealalaia Makan Negahban @makan_ok Shilla Shakoori @shilla_shakoori Marta Thoma Hall @martathomahallart On view through May 15, 2026. The exhibition proposes a focused look at how artists use figurative work to explore personal mythology and experience, bringing together six contemporary voices whose practices engage with the dialogue between intimate narratives and the imaginative. Imagined Realities and Unreal Fantasies traces the boundary between the internal and external world, balancing tangible truths with the subconscious. Inspired in part by the domestic architecture of the gallery, the artworks are selected to interact with and reflect upon this intimate setting, considering how the figure serves as a vessel for both private observation and fantastical construction. Through various figurative approaches, the show invites viewers to move between parallel streams of reality, asking: where do our personal histories end and our fantasies begin? Together, the artists embody the dualities at the core of the exhibition, guiding visitors through an installation that shifts from the deeply personal to the fantastical, from intensity to stillness.
