In garish Pop-ish colors, Heiner Meyer's painting explodes the superficiality of contemporary life in images of pop-media consumerist glamour, with which Meyer conflates images from the history of European art. Reeking of saturation, greed and excess, Meyer's canvases capture our garish present, haunted by a distant dream of nobler aspirations.
