Corner paintings and A or B paintings
In collaboration with Ribordy Contemporary. Paintings will be presented in both galleries to form a single exhibition. For several years Kopp's paintings focused on motif, illusion, perspective and geometric abstraction, the viewer being confronted with works that often oscillated between abstraction and representation. Over time vivid colors yielded to an intentionally neutral monochrome palette - greys and whites (Corner paintings, 2011-present) or browns (Chocolate paintings, 2007-2012). At the same time, the surrealist and comical landscapes which mixed architectural elements and isolated body parts began to be replaced by paintings in which figure and background merged together. For this joint exhibition, the artist presents his latest body of work: Corner paintings and A or B paintings.
