About
Statement
Rukaj Gallery is thrilled to present a show of new paintings by American artist Malcolm Liepke. Liepke's dynamic and richly-coloured works give viewers a glimpse into intimate moments of sensual pleasure and introspection.
Press Release
In many of these close-cropped paintings, viewers get the sense that they are observing a private moment. Others show wider scenes that envelop the viewer in rich colours and thick surface impasto. Above all, Liepke wants to capture emotion in his subjects -- "truthfully represent[ing] human feelings” is the artist's “ultimate challenge." He does this through technique as well as facial expressions, postures, and compositions.
