Robert Kushner in Conversation on the exhibition: I Still ♥️ Matisse

I Still ♥ Matisse 📅 February 12 – March 14, 2026 📍 DC Moore Gallery Wonderful news, Tritons! We’re excited to share that our official UCSD alumni gathering will take place on March 4: a guided tour of I Still ♥ Matisse led by UC San Diego Alum Robert Kushner. A rare opportunity, to meet and discuss Art with the artist himself! Robert Kushner: I Still ♥️ Matisse, on view at DC Moore Gallery through March 14, presents two new and interrelated bodies of work. Three monumental variations on a 1915 Henri Matisse painting expand upon Kushner’s series of paintings inspired by Matisse still lifes, first exhibited in the 2021 exhibition I ♥️ Matisse at DC Moore. Shown alongside are a series of paintings of seasonal flowers which intertwine elements from Kushner’s recent investigations of still life, varied approaches to flowers as a subject, and commitment to pattern. These paintings represent a new confluence of these longstanding interests, marked by a color palette influenced by European Modernism, sensitivity to line, and an expansive use of white as form and ground. See you there!
