「Monologue」
Ruprecht von Kaufmann first solo show in Asia
Ruprecht von Kaufmann (b.1974, Munich, Germany) was educated at the Art Center College of Design, Los Angeles, CA., As Dr Brigitte Hausmann, curator for the Art Program of the City of Berlin has written in her introduction to Leben zwischen den Stuhlen (Distanz, 2021), Von Kaufmann ‘ranks among the important contemporary positions in figurative painting’. His forceful and emotional paintings are unsettling and purposefully so, since Von Kaufmann places great emphasis on storytelling, resulting in his figurative work being full of dark humor as well as dense melancholy. In his artworks, he captures moments that are deeply personal while also hinting at a universal experience.
Ruprecht von Kaufmann’s figurative paintings are awash in dramatic lighting and deep tonal palettes, resulting in expressionistic, cinematic works. His melancholic canvases are imbued with mysterious, absurdist narrative details, featuring lonely travelers, ghostlike circus scenes, and theatrical tableaux full of enigmatic motifs and details. Kaufmann frequently leaves his subjects faceless and open to interpretation. He has exhibited in New York, London, Berlin, Prague, Hamburg, Milan, and Seattle. Kaufmann’s works are in the collections of the Federal Republic of Germany, the Deutsche Bundestag Art Collection, the Hort Family Collection, and the Uziyel Family Collection.
