About the Item
"Every Morning Look in the Mirror" is a neo-expressionist painting created by contemporary American artist John Copeland. The large artwork is an oil on canvas, on stretcher and with title and signatures on verso. Small cracks showing where heavy impasto applied.
John Copeland was born in California in 1976 and received a BFA in 1998 from the California College of Arts and Crafts. Upon graduating, Copeland moved to New York, where he continues to live and work.
His Neo-expressionistic paintings capture the darker side of human drives and desires concealed within the everyday. He works in an elaborately gestural style, with raw and bold brushstrokes often with heavy impasto and large drips all over the canvas, distorting his figures so that they merge into the background. The relationship between abstraction and figuration has been a continuous focus throughout Copeland’s career. Copeland has stated, ‘I’m more interested in using the language of painting and working with the edge of abstraction, working with the push and pull of paint, image, readability and texture.’
Copeland’s work has been exhibited internationally in Copenhagen, Bologna, Zurich, New York, Leipzig and most recently at the Newport Street Gallery in London.

- Matthias Alfen German Sculptor Modern Expressionist Painting PsychogramBy Matthias AlfenLocated in Surfside, FLMatthias Alfen’s series of Janus figures are an innovation in figural art predicated on the advances made by the Futurist sculptor and painter Umberto Boccioni and the Modernist Alberto Giacometti. The qualities of chance and spontaneity, necessarily excluded in the sculptural work, are clearly evident in his drawings and paintings. “Psychograms” of unchoreographed hand movements display wide variation, repeatedly playing through one form after another. In the end, this multitude of variation serves to enhance the logic, consistency, and seductively rich appearance of Alfen’s designed sculptural works. Represented by Gallery Schuckin in New York, Paris, France, and Moscow, Russia. Matthias Alfen’s was strongly influenced by his family’s experience during World War II. His grandfather Klemens Alfen (1894-1955) was an accomplished painter and photographer, recognized for his landscape photography and for his technique (Special Honors for Excellence in Photo-Print Technology, 1932). He enjoyed the friendship and support of many in the artistic community, a community largely influenced by its German Jewish members. Having lost his entire circle of friends under Nazi oppression. Klemens, although not Jewish, also suffered under the Nazis for refusing to join them and struggling in post-war Germany, which had nothing to offer an artist like him, Klemens took his own life. At around the age of 16 he worked for some weeks as an assistant at his uncle’s art studio. Fritz Koenig...Category
