Fostering his sublime photorealist mountainscapes, Rudolf Stingel‘s conceptual approach to art-making is brilliantly exemplified in this replica of the German Expressionist Ernst Ludwig Kirchner’s 1925 work Wald im Winter, on view at Sadie Coles HQ.
While the vibrant pink undertones and thick gestural strokes perfectly mirror the original, on closer inspection, Stingel’s characteristic interrogation of a painting’s authenticity shines through.
