David Czupryn (*1983) studied under Georg Herold, Lucy McKenzie and Tomma Abts in D\u00fcsseldorf. He is a master of the trompe-l'\u0153il effect, the centuries-old art of deceiving the eye, which is celebrating an unexpected comeback in his work. Using brush and colour, he mimetically recreates surfaces, thus provocatively negating handwriting and gesture. The paintings - David Czupryn works with strong harmonious contrasts and applies the paint translucently - appear to be cast from a single mould; they are not photorealistic, but illusionistically three-dimensional. Arrows and other graphic elements are added to the calm backgrounds, standing surfaces and movement motifs. In addition to reaching limbs, broken symmetries, falling, floating, connected, intertwined, open and transparent elements attract attention - pictures within a picture, as it were, but also set pieces that play around each other. It is no wonder that the painter appreciates the Surrealists, but also shows a certain fondness for Alfred Kubin. However, the enigmatisation he pursues is not in the tradition of Black Romanticism, but is reminiscent of Alexander Calder and Naum Gabo, but of course also of the mischievous work of Georg Herold. David Czupryn's pictures can therefore be understood without hesitation as painted installations in which constructivism, kinetics and surrealism celebrate their ironic origins. Or to put it another way: Calder, Dal\u00ed and Herold share the app here.A<\/p>\n
