Portia Zvavahera
2025-10-14 18:00 - 20:00 (Asia/Kolkata) | David Zwirner, 606 N Western Ave, Los Angeles, CA, 90004, United States
David Zwirner is pleased to present its third solo exhibition with the Zimbabwean artist Portia Zvavahera (b. 1985). Taking place at the gallery’s 606 N Western Avenue location in Los Angeles, this presentation will feature a series of new paintings that continues to develop the artist’s subject matter by joining her carefully charted dream worlds with her lived experience and daily rituals. Zvavahera expands her practice with familiar motifs and narratives; her works are populated by symbolic creatures that become powerful conduits for the interpretation of spiritual visions and the contemplation of our earthly existence. This will be Zvavahera’s first solo exhibition in Los Angeles since 2017.
In 2024, Kettle’s Yard, University of Cambridge, England, opened Zvakazarurwa, a solo exhibition of Zvavahera’s work organized in collaboration with Fruitmarket Gallery, Edinburgh, where the show traveled in 2025. Curated by Tamar Garb, this exhibition marked Zvavahera’s first solo institutional presentation in the United Kingdom. Also in 2024–2025, the Fondation Louis Vuitton, Paris, presented the solo show Imba yerumbidzo (House of Praise) as the fifteenth iteration of its Open Space exhibition series. In August 2025, the Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston, opened Hidden Battles / Hondo dzakavanzika, the artist’s first solo show in the United States, which will be on view through January 2026. The artist will also open a solo exhibition at Fridericianum, Kassel, on September 27, 2025.

Most recently, Dixon released Come As You Are—a collaborative R&B, soul, and jazz fusion album with super-producer Terrace Martin, best known for his work on Kendrick Lamar’s To Pimp a Butterfly and Good Kid, M.A.A.D City. The project is already earning widespread acclaim for its bold fusion of genres, spiritual depth, and cultural authenticity.
Beyond his own records, Dixon’s creative footprint spans across the industry. He co-wrote 10 songs on Justin Timberlake’s latest albumEverything I Thought It Was, arranged and vocally produced theICU Remix for Coco Jones, and co-wrote “Keep Going Up.” He also served as music director for Revolt TV’s The Link Up II and continues to be a go-to collaborator for artists across genres.
Dixon’s music has also made its way to the screen, featured in hit shows and films like The Chi, Bel-Air, and Tyler Perry’s Divorce in the Black. In 2025, he earned an NAACP Image Award nomination for Best Collaboration for his duet “Whatcha Done Now” with R&B powerhouse Leela James—adding another milestone to an already stellar run.
