Rein Kelpman\'s exhibitions of the last few years both in
Tartu and in Tallinn have given the visitors a superb possibility to get
acquainted with his painter\'s abilities. Both the artist\'s earlier and
recent creation has been exposed. Kelpman\'s extraordinary grotesque,
figurative painting of the 80ies has now turned into abstract minimal
compositions of experimental colour and form solutions. |
|
The exhibition that will be opened in the Haus Gallery
refers to the new creative period of the artist, possessing a searching
nature. According to his own words he is moving from extreme red, yellow
and purple tones to more balanced, peaceful, pastel colour solutions that
proceed from the nature. |
|
In the exhibition hall of the Gallery are exposed 13 oil
paintings - carefully composed abstract associations that shine because of
glowing, blending colour rooms, proceeding from each other - yellows in
yellow and greens in green... |
|
Objects on the paintings do not detach mainly because
of the colour contrasts, but because of factural, thick surfaces. Kelpman
has approaced his paintings as a sculptor, forming on the canvas in the
mixed technique original geometrical relievos. From this is also derived
the title of the exhibition - PLASTICAL
GEOMETRY
