Jason Stopa's "Open Window" Opens October 29 at Morgan Present

Brooklyn artist Jason Stopa showcases a fresh collection of works in "Jason Stopa: Open Window" at Morgan Present, with the opening reception set for Thursday, October 29, 2026. Entry is complimentary. This exhibition revisits the Renaissance concept of painting as a window, which Stopa both honors and challenges by creating painted frames within frames and contrasting thick impasto strokes with sharp geometric backgrounds. His vibrant palette, featuring neon-like pinks, golden yellows, cobalt blues, and electric greens, is arranged through illuminated archways and window frames. The display emphasizes three themes: the boundaries of composition, the interplay between textured strokes and smooth color fields, and motifs that reflect urban and natural landscapes. Stopa draws inspiration from figures like Henri Matisse and Josef Albers, presenting a case for the significance of traditional painting techniques in an age dominated by digital imagery.
