About the Item
This work juxtaposes two biomorphic figures—one suspended in a teal-blue field, the other grounded in olive green—both rendered in Tschopp’s signature mosaic-like color patterning. The figures, composed of interlocking patches of red, yellow, violet, and blue, evoke a playful rhythm suggestive of motion and duality. The composition’s split-color background heightens the sense of balance and contrast, transforming simple abstraction into an elegant visual dialogue between form and field.
Context and Legacy
Rooted in postwar abstraction, this painting reflects the 1960s Southern California fascination with color, geometry, and organic structure. Its restrained yet vibrant execution situates Tschopp among a generation of artists who sought harmony between spontaneity and control.
Collector’s Note
Presented in its original gilt frame, this piece demonstrates Tschopp’s refined sense of chromatic interplay. Subtle texture across the surface adds tactile depth, inviting close observation.
About the Artist
Stanley Donald Tschopp (American, b. 1935) is a painter associated with postwar abstraction and the Los Angeles art scene. His work explores the boundaries between organic and geometric form, often employing vibrant color and rhythmic repetition. Tschopp participated in the 2011 group exhibition Lost
Found: Abstracting Los Angeles 1945–1980 at Bergamot Station Arts Center in Santa Monica, California—a show that situated him among peers such as Robert Graham and Larry Bell.
Although relatively underrepresented in institutional histories, Tschopp’s paintings exemplify the spirit of experimentation that defined mid-century West Coast abstraction. His precise compositions, subtle textures, and disciplined use of color continue to resonate with collectors drawn to the period’s synthesis of craft, intellect, and emotion.

Contemporary Acrylic Abstract Painting by Mitchell Wright
Located in Pasadena, CA
This blue monochrome painting by contemporary artist Mitchel Wright transports us to distant worlds beyond our comprehension. Within his seemingly infinite networks of lines, dots, and crosses, he decodes the recognizable to create something unfamiliar.
Wright crosses shades of blue and grey lines, reconstructing a sense of regularity obtained by the arrangement of different triangles sizes. The triangular forms used for the painting contrast with the perfect square shape of the artwork. It sits in a grey metal frame.
