Michael Werner Gallery, Beverly Hills is pleased to present strike the dust, the first West Coast exhibition of new paintings by prominent German-born, New York-based painter Florian Krewer.
Full of rampant desires and fervent dreams, Krewer chronicles his recent travels, experiences, and revelries on the canvas. He celebrates community and love, while at the same time documenting his profound feelings of injustice, isolation, loneliness, and loss. Deeply personal and autobiographical, Krewer’s visceral and impassioned paintings are also universal. They offer up a world in which everyone has the freedom to love without barriers and bask in the fullness of nature and humanity.
Florian Krewer (born in Gerolstein, Germany in 1986) has exhibited around the world. Recent solo exhibitions include Nice Dog, M WOODS Museum, Beijing; light the ocean, Michael Werner Gallery, New York; everybody rise, Aspen Art Museum; Es liebt Dich und Deine Körperlichkeit ein Verwirrter, Kunsthalle Düsseldorf; and ride or fly, Michael Werner Gallery, London. The artist received the Prix Jean-François Prat awarded by the Bredin Prat Foundation in 2022. Krewer lives and works in the South Bronx, New York.
