Mitchell Fine Art proudly displays an exhibition of works by Steve Lopes at Sofitel Brisbane Central's La Galerie.
Steve Lopes is a Sydney-based figurative painter who uses the landscape to examine human existence. In a career spanning over 25 years, the figure has always been central to Lopes’ oeuvre.
Filled with expressive colour and bold imagery, Lopes combines complex compositions and narrative figures close to the artist’s life.
While his landscapes are representations of what he sees, the figures are often imagined personalities subsequently placed into the composition.
An avid traveller, Lopes’ insatiable curiosity for new experiences drives his art, through which he connects the threads of history and place with the people who have shaped them
Steve Lopes has won the Gallipoli Art Prize and the Kings School Art Prize in Sydney.
His works hang in collections including the National Gallery of Australia and the Parliament House Art Collection.
On display at Sofitel Brisbane Central, 249 Turbot St Brisbane (above Central Station).
