Los Angeles painter Lucas Reiner may be related by blood to some of the funniest men in America, but when it comes to painting, he's as serious as the plague. This exhibition features selections from his ongoing series, in which heavily worked surfaces support detailed depictions of trees that have been absurdly manipulated by urban engineering. The upward-reaching limbs — missing or with foliage trimmed into lopsided, partially denuded squares — make a convincing metaphor for the minds and bodies of modern urbanites.
