Brian Scott Campbell's Enchanting Landscapes at Galleria Richter, Rome

Galleria Richter in Rome has expanded its space, debuting with a solo exhibition by American painter Brian Scott Campbell (b. 1983, Columbus, Ohio; lives in Denton, Texas). The show features six paintings (all 40×50 cm) and an equal number of drawings. Campbell's work transforms ordinary landscape views into disorienting scenes by blending poster-like reductionism with light Impressionist touches. His subjects include trees, urban bridges, arches, sails, suns, and clouds so rectilinear they merge with roads. The paintings' vast color fields appear flat but are not, while trembling borders strip subjects of pop connotations. The drawings employ a similar strategy, approaching reality through subtraction by focusing on outlines. The exhibition is curated by Pericle Guaglianone, who also reviewed the show for Artribune.
