For his 2025 exhibition in The Future Perfect’s Los Angeles gallery the Goldwyn House, Stan Bitters has embraced the quietly organic aura of objects that has helped solidify him as part of the canon of 20th century sculptors. Bitters’ works have a complex relationship with the spaces and landscapes they occupy, clouding the origin of “making” and rectifying the abstract nature of pre-lingual gestures. 

A pioneer of the organic modernist craft movement of the 1960’s, Bitters possesses a material clarity that is rarely found in the practices of younger artists. The context from which he produces his work is something pure and primordial, unaffected by institutional language and thus executed with a sublime and subtle magnitude that evokes continental shift and symbolic pre-architecture. 

The works on view at The Future Perfect, Humpies, have lived a varied and generative life of exhibition. They carry their environments with them and bring something fiercely unique with them in each iteration. On view in The Goldwyn House, they seamlessly enter into a conversation with both naturalism and contemporary design, serving as a conduit between the world that made us and the world we inhabit.
