A Portfolio: Florent Stosskopf

Ahead of his solo show with BEERS London later this year, we take a look at French painter Florent Stosskopf in today’s A Portfolio. As BEERS points out, “Florent Stosskopf is a self-taught painter based in Brittany, France, whose work deftly subverts traditional art-historical themes and archetypes through a contemporary perspective, reminiscent of Jonas Wood, Guy Yanai, Hillary Pecis, or Paul Wackers. Through the use of bright colours and razor-sharp line-work, his complex still lives and floral scenes borrow from the annals of Classical Antiquity, the Baroque movement, and Modernism as well as his own repertoire of imagery.”
