    Thomas Zipp’s work was on view at Marc Jancou Contemporary in a solo exhibition entitled Thomas Zipp: Paintings 2002-2007. Five years after the gallery’s first Thomas Zipp exhibition in 2003, its engagement with the work is carried on in a survey of paintings produced from 2002-2007, which is comprised mainly of portraits and landscapes.Thomas Zipp reinvestigates stories, myths, and utopias from the past, which he translates into a contemporary context. Drawing from varied sources of inspiration, ranging from philosophy, art history, politics, and pop culture, Zipp creates a critical distance from these references through unusual combinations and unexpected styles.
