Flora Yukhnovich: Bacchanalia

Publication design, art direction, typography

Client: Hauser & Wirth

2025

Accompanying Yukhnovich’s solo exhibition at Hauser & Wirth Downtown Los Angeles, this exhibition catalogue captures the energy, dynamism, and intense corporeality of the artist’s new body of work through an extensive selection of illustrations.

In close collaboration with Flora, we commissioned photographer Dan McMahon to photograph her studio practice,
which is inspired by a wide range of sources, from French Rococo painting to Disney films. Rather than creating different sections for the photos and paintings, we were interested in juxtaposing details of her work with studio glimpses that operated in a similar manner to create a kind of visual continuum. Outside of these pairings, each of the ten works has a section devoted to details, all reproduced at 50% scale. Bacchanalia is heavy on the ink, immersive, rich, and layered—a feast for the eyes.
