It Will Destroy You brings together works by contemporary artists who interrogate the deconstruction of systems and structures that have long governed our lives. Through painting, sculpture, installation, and video, the exhibition reflects on themes of self-preservation and reconciliation as we navigate what the curators describe as a "crumbling socio-political landscape built on violence, greed, corruption, and brutality."

The exhibition features work by Michelle Alexander, Lauren Bertelson, Matias Brimmer, Robert Burnier,  Alison Campbell, Zach Dobbins, Rea-Silvia Emmanouil, Sophia Farmer, Figwürm, Shanti Grandhi, Chloe Harthan, Sascha Huth, Melanie L. Johnson, Diada Amiri Jones, Rohen Jones, César López, Colin Martinez, Van Payne, Dylan Rabe, Austin Reilly, James Ross Servantz, Ethan Shay-Cowell, Deb Sokolow

The Ukrainian Institute of Modern Art proudly presents L.A. Woman, a memorial exhibition surveying the life’s work of model, actress, artist, curator, and documentary filmmaker, Irene Antonovych.

On show are works from all periods of her life:  competition winning paintings she made as a teenager, student works from Canada and Los Angeles, modeling photographs, memorabilia from her tenure as cultural coordinator at Loyola Marymount University, award winning documentaries on American Art produced for Handel Film Corporation, and “Generations: A Documentary of Ukrainians in Chicago”.  Perhaps most poignant are the final paintings, made during her five-year contention with Alzheimer’s.

The exhibit also highlights her personal collection, which includes works by her private instructor, Ukrainian Canadian portraitist Julian Butsmaniuk; her theatre design mentor, Greek luminary Peter Vakalo; California artists Nick Brigante, Peter Max, Morgan Russell, Sister Corita, and Volodymyr Ballas; and Mexican master printmaker Ruffino Tamayo.
