Andrea Lehmann - Johannes Huppi
The Kravets/Wehby Gallery is pleased to announce a two-person
exhibition of new work by Johannes Hüppi and Andrea Lehmann. The
exhibition opens Thursday October 25, with a reception from 6-8 pm and
runs through December 8, 2007.
Inner turmoil spills from the canvas in the work of Andrea Lehmann and
Johannes Hüppi. Hüppi creates intimate portraits of haunted women
utilizing a painterly approach and smaller scale. Naïveté ensues
amongst suspiciously saccharine women despite intermittent hauntings
of nightmarish beasts and beheaded figures.
Both artists explore the sinister thoughts that loom in the periphery
of creative unconscious, but where Hüppi is subtle Lehmann screams
intensity. Her expansive vistas of painted terror are madness writ
large. Lehmann counters the somber and contemplative nightmares of
Hüppi with wily hordes of women and incessant chatter.
Hüppi and Lehmann thoroughly explore the dark side of reverie and the
myths surrounding. Romantic, or not, both leave the viewer with a
delectable feast for the senses.
