  • In the 1980s, Walter Vopava developed a nonrepresentational style of painting that deliberately set itself apart from the figurative and expressive movements of the time. As an alternative to the gestural visual language of the Neue Wilde, Vopava focuses on the effects of color, space, and atmosphere. In doing so, he primarily works with the tense interplay of light and dark, density and emptiness, surface and depth. From the mid-1990s onward, his vertically oriented canvases came to be dominated by massive dark bars overlaid with lighter sections that almost seem to float. Through this interplay of contrasts, the paintings open up a space of experience in which painting itself becomes the subject - as a self-reflexive, sensual, and physically perceptible process.
