Dean Monogenis – The Other Way | Galerie Xippas Paris

The exhibition The Other Way, the third solo show by Dean Monogenis at Galerie Xippas in Paris, gathers new paintings created over the past year. The show opens alongside the launch of his new monograph Higher Ground. xippas.com Monogenis turns landscape into a zone where natural and manufactured elements converge. Vast mountain panoramas, shimmering lakes and bands of color meet minimal architectural forms. Using flat tones and precise composition, he explores how built structures and wild terrain coexist and collide. xippas.com Although the scenes feel familiar, they function as re-constructions where human presence is merely suggested through tents, houses and pathways — a silent trace of the human story. Works like The Ability to Forget and The Calling surface themes of memory, disappearance and our yearning for nature. xippas.com For Monogenis, landscape painting becomes a vehicle for reflection; the viewer is invited into a terrain between vision and time — between what we build and what we leave behind.
