About the Item

Genre: Modern Subject: Abstract Medium: Mixed Media Surface: Paper Country: United States Dimensions: 18" x 45" Dimensions w/Frame: 24 3/4" x 51 1/2" Working primarily with structural, architectural and still life subject matter, Kepets goes far beyond the simple depiction of his material. Complex and engaging, his work transforms familiar objects into highly evocative abstractions. Kepets renders precise and patterned close-ups by utilizing meticulous highlighting and shadow effects. This creates a feeling of three dimensional space in his carefully observed architectural and still life details. Focusing attention on the intricacies of each object, Kepets uses his sharply cropped compositions to express the sheer beauty of shapes and forms. He constantly plays with formal notions of surface flatness, figure-ground relationships and compositional symmetry. Kepets' work exhibits control of an immense amount of information and a subtle and present technical prowess. Hugh Kepets was born in Cleveland, Ohio in 1946 and received Fine Arts degrees from Carnegie-Mellon University and Ohio University. He now lives and works in New York City. . He has had numerous solo shows of his paintings, drawings and prints at galleries across the United States including Fischback Gallery in New York, Roger Ramsey Gallery in Chicago, Randall Beck Gallery in Boston, Vick Gallery in Philadelphia, David Adamson Gallery in Washington D.C., Michael Berger Gallery in Pittsburgh, and Brenda Kroos Gallery in Cleveland, as well as countless group shows in the U.S. and abroad. Kepetsʼ work is included in major museum and university collections including the Art Institute of Chicago, Cleveland Museum of Art, Yale University Art Gallery, and the Philadelphia Museum of Art, as well as scores of corporate and private collections.
