Sophie von Hellermann: Dreamcatcher
Booth B50, Art Basel Paris
On the occasion of Art Basel Paris 2024, Sophie von Hellermann, equipped with her brushes, watercolours and a stack of fine paper, will be present at the Pilar Corrias booth painting the dreams of visitors. Sophie von Hellermann’s paintings layer complex narrative threads, drawing upon current affairs as often and as fluidly as they borrow from the imagery of classical mythology and literature to create expansive imaginary places. In subject matter and style, von Hellermann tests imagination against reality.
‘von Hellermann’s work is a never ending stream of images cascading across canvases, paper, architecture and furniture. Viewing it individually, isolated or framed, is not properly understanding her painterly gesture. One has to dive in, swim with, be drawn away...’ – Fabian Goppelsröder, 2024
Works not for sale; register interest with the gallery’s sales team.
Pilar Corrias will host a solo exhibition with Sophie von Hellermann in January 2025.
