Yossi Milo is pleased to announce two new limited-edition prints of works by painter Linus Borgo, created from prominent recent works by the artist. Each archival pigment print is hand-signed and numbered by the artist and available in editions of eighteen.
"Sunny Side Up" (2026) is a highlight from Borgo's latest solo exhibition, Into the Blue Again, on view through April 25, 2026. The work is a still life and portrait at once, with atmospheric tones that cast a Post-Impressionist haze not unlike paintings by Pierre Bonnard, Paul Cézanne, or the later Giorgio Morandi.
"The Impossibility of Unlearning" (2024) is based on Borgo's work created for the tenth-anniversary collector's edition of author Hanya Yanagihara's best-selling 2015 novel, A Little Life.
“The Impossibility of Unlearning” is based on a scene from the story where the protagonist, Jude, shares his past with his friend Willem; Jude is seated, framed by Willem, who looms in the foreground. Much of Borgo’s own work weighs the aftermath of trauma and the ways it remains evident, a resonant theme in A Little Life: how “Life rearranges itself to compensate for your loss, sometimes wonderfully.” Borgo’s title is derived from a scene of Jude’s solitude, referencing how “he cannot unlearn the feeling.”
