Echotropia

ECHOTROPIA is the first comprehensive monograph on the work of Christian Achenbach, tracing his artistic development from his early paintings of musicians to his expressive abstractions and his recent landscapes and sculptures in glass and metal. Drawing on influences ranging from Renaissance painting and Impressionism to Op Art, Hard Edge and Pop Art, Achenbach brings together different artistic languages, eras and visual worlds in vibrant, dynamic compositions. His works transform familiar landscapes into imaginative spaces where memory, art history, music and contemporary visual culture come together in a unique and captivating way.
