art alex katz inside studio new paintings

Alex Katz presents a new body of work titled "White Lotus" at Gray Chicago, on view through September 20. The exhibition features large-scale portraits and cool, cinematic scenes inspired by a beach in Maine and Antonioni's *L'Avventura*, with only a superficial connection to the TV series *The White Lotus*. Katz, now in his late 90s, continues his seven-decade practice of prioritizing style over narrative, focusing on surfaces, garments, and glances. Concurrently, his work is also on view at SCAI Piramide in Tokyo, San Diego's Museum of Contemporary Art, and Gladstone Gallery will host a fall exhibition of his orange abstractions. The article includes an interview where Katz discusses his studio habits, influences (Fra Angelico, Veronese, Goya), and his resilience in the face of early career criticism.
