Jeffrey Kroll works in the abstract non-objective tradition, counting among his influences Picasso, Paul Klee, Kandinsky, Mondrian and de Kooning. His works build layers of meaning and colourwithin an overarching spatial concept of extraordinary invention and unexpected nuance; a fluid dimensionality using colour as the ‘supreme metaphysical catalyst’.

“Jeffrey Kroll’s painting leads us into a sure place of wonder; it is wonder that erases doubt by spontaneously grabbing the heart and holding it. Kroll’s new body of work, with its finely controlled handling continues to layer our thinking through abstract imagery. If, as Plato said, the painter makes a dream for those who are awake, then in looking at Jeffrey Kroll’s paintings here and now, where they belong, we should be awake and ready to dream”.-Maggi Goren
