CONTINUATION A

B O U T T H E S H O W

Continuation is a landmark exhibition uniting the work of Charles Arnoldi, Natalie Arnoldi, and Ryland Arnoldi, marking the first time the Arnoldi family has exhibited together in Greater Los Angeles.

The exhibition explores the interplay of legacy and individuality within a shared creative lineage. Though linked by family and shaped by the cultural landscape of Southern California, each artist brings a distinct vision. Charles revisits and expands upon long-standing formal investigations; Natalie evokes the fragile beauty of natural forces through atmospheric, immersive canvases; and Ryland transforms familiar vistas into vivid, dreamlike landscapes.

Together, these works highlight how creativity evolves across generations—sometimes diverging, sometimes circling back—always renewing itself in unexpected ways. Continuation illuminates the threads of influence and independence woven through the Arnoldis’ practice, offering viewers a rare opportunity to see familial connection and artistic innovation in dialogue.

At its core, the exhibition is a meditation on persistence and transformation: a testament to art’s power to endure, inspire, and transcend the boundaries of time and inheritance.

Continuation is presented in partnership with TIME4ART, led by Chairman of the Board Homeira Goldstein, and curated by David Austin of Austin Art Projects.
