Jeffrey Koster
One of the pioneers
of the historic SOHO art community, Jeffrey
Koster work has been represented in New
York City by the Greer Gallery, Allen Stone
Gallery, O.K.
Harris and SOHO's Gallery 10.
Landscape
is the starting point in Kosters extensive
and varied body of work-painted with superb
naturalistic detail, or developed through
ever increasing levels of abstraction into
works of remarkable imagination-and uniquely
personal surrealism architectural elements
join natural forms creating impossible vistas-repetition
of forms within nature create rhythms that
imply not only space, but time. Whether representational
or abstract, Koster's works are executed
with masterly rendering of form color, light
shadow and reflection.
Recent paintings bring light itself into
the realm of abstraction. Capturing the sense
of the truly cosmic.
Kosters sculptures are genuinely breathtaking
cast in pure zinc polished to a brilliant
silver finish, Koster explores multiplication
of form-human arms legs horse heads, silver
wings joined and repeated in dazzling assemblages
which change our perception of the world.
A life time New Yorker Koster moved to south
Florida in 1987
