On February 21, the Fritz Gallery hosted an opening reception for a solo exhibition of Austrian-born artist Helmut Koller. Known for his brightly colored animal paintings, self-taught artist Koller comes from the world of photography. Having made his name as the official photographer of the Vienna State Opera, he started painting realistically, like Victor Vasarely and other artists, but then his style evolved. He coined a word for it, "Kollerism," which he defines as "realistic representation of the form and the abstraction of colors" with a three-color harmony. "I am the creator, leader and only follower of my own art movement," states Koller. The artist spends his time between Palm Beach, Florida and his native Vienna, Austria. His work is on display at the Fritz through March 17, 2019.

The Fritz Gallery presents Helmut Koller and Nathan Coe at the Palm Beach Jewelry, Art & Antique Show, 2019. Helmut Koller, the Viennese artist and photographer, creates realistic-looking animals within the harmony of a strict three-color palette, that he terms as Kollerism. His most recent work, a large canvas "Bison on White" is on the display. "Don't expect me to explain my art," he says, summing up "see what you get, if it touches you -- great, if it doesn't ...fine." Nathan Coe, hailing from the UK via Nantucket, showcases his latest collection of nudes made in Palm Beach.
