2026 ENZO Art Fair: Tim Crowley

BANK is delighted to present the works of Tim Crowley at the first edition of ENZO in Los Angeles.

Tim Crowley's practice often explores the mechanics of the art world through pseudo-posters that blend institutional critique with wry observation. His paintings dissect visual languages of promotion and display, turning exhibition advertisements into self-reflexive mediums. By reimagining posters for fictional or future exhibitions, Crowley constructs parallel narratives that hover between irony and homage, revealing the invisible labor and layered fictions underpinning contemporary art systems.

Among the featured works is an oil painting conceived as a poster for an exhibition set in the year 2112. A dog’s gaze directs viewers toward the bold, oversized letters “ART” in the upper-left corner, while handwritten text declares “Art is my everything.” This theatrical, almost devotional proclamation is undercut by a playful absurdity—the canine witness, the distant future setting, and the exaggerated piety together create a sly commentary on art’s mythologized role. 

In another featured work, a close-up of a hairless cat dominates the composition, behind which a woman with her hair tied up becomes faceless and indistinct, the deep blue backdrop seemingly concealing certain secrets. This 2125 exhibition is titled "Shiva's Selfie," where Tim Crowley continues his signature juxtaposition of seriousness and absurdity. The deity of destruction and creation raises a smartphone just beyond the frame, as if solemn divinity itself dissolves into pixels within the work.

ENZO is a new boutique art fair launching this February, coinciding with Frieze Los Angeles and Felix Art Fair. Taking place in Echo Park, ENZO presents nine galleries from New York’s Chinatown and Lower East Side, bringing this dynamic gallery scene into dialogue with Los Angeles’s distinct cultural landscape.
