Après-Ski Meets Pop: Moritz Moll’s Vivid Figures Glide into Gstaad

A burst of color and character arrives in Gstaad as Munich artist Moritz Moll joins Maddox Gallery’s roster. Moll’s paintings, alive with flattened forms and bold hues, capture friends and family in scenes that blur the lines between youth and adulthood. His figures, often gender-fluid and rendered in oils and spray paint, bring a fresh, modern twist to portraiture—standing out for their playful energy and subtle complexity. Drawing inspiration from Matisse’s fearless color, Katz’s crisp outlines, and the cinematic flair of Wes Anderson, Moll crafts portraits that feel both familiar and dreamlike. His debut solo show with Maddox, “The Grand Finale,” showcases après-ski moments reimagined through a Pop Art lens, inviting viewers to see everyday rituals as vibrant tableaux. Moll’s art proves that even the most ordinary gatherings can shimmer with unexpected meaning—especially when viewed through a lens as bold as his. #ContemporaryArt #MoritzMoll #FigurativePainting #Culture
