This exhibition celebrates these forgotten masters and their practice, marking 350 years since they arrived in England. It also reveals how the family's legacy as renowned émigré artists transformed British visual culture and inspired future generations of artists including J.M.W. Turner.
This up-close-and-personal project, which later became part of a much bigger commission at the request of the German newspaper Die Zeit, documents how for Goppel, along with many of his friends, the initial euphoria surrounding Covid was replaced by disorientation, isolation, and uncertainty. Through both staged and observed imagery, Goppel strives to relay the emotions experienced during this strange time. Ironically, for the photographer the pursuit of image led him briefly out of his own isolation.
