For the second in our series of three exhibitions at The Smithfield Gallery, we are delighted to present ‘Seduction in Colour’ by Frank Fischer, the artist’s first solo show in London. Frank translates well-known paintings from different periods of art history into a style of his own by creating an abstract colour spectrum, where only the title of the painting relates to its origin. Entirely abstract, he constructs his paintings by pouring household gloss paint onto aluminium.

Born in Zurich, Switzerland, Frank came to the UK in the 1990s to study fine art and graduated from Chelsea College of Art and Design in 2002. Since then, he has had a number of group exhibitions throughout the UK and has several paintings in private and corporate collections, including The Royal Bank of Scotland.
