This article highlights ten art shows to see in Los Angeles this November, featuring a diverse range of exhibitions. Key shows include Kathleen Ryan's bejeweled rotten fruit, Puppies Puppies's homage to freedom flags, and TJ Shin's bird songs. Historical perspectives are offered through a survey of prints by Robert Rauschenberg at Gemini G.E.L., rarely seen works by Mexican muralist Alfredo Ramos Martínez at Scripps College, and a tribute to the Brockman Gallery at the Vincent Price Art Museum. The two-venue exhibition 'Monuments' investigates how art reflects national narratives, while Puppies Puppies's dual shows use color and text to address contemporary liberation struggles.
