Yves Oppenheim (B. 1948)

Fruits from 1991 is an expert example of abstract painter Yves Oppenheim. Over the scope of two panels Oppenheim layers and juxtaposes colours in order to create a specific tonal mood. Shapes and patterns rendered in red and yellow with hues of blue, create a dream-like scenery, a restaging of the classical still-life genre which fluctuates on the edge between abstraction and figuration.
