In Raupach’s painting everything is light and reflection. The glare on the floor is so bright that nothing more really is visible. There is only a whole of pure radiance. The rest of the world has been turned into a weird mirror, as if the role of all the things that surround us could be reduced to one single thing: to reflect light. Perhaps for the painter that is what objects are for. Stehn Raupach’s quicksilver painting seems to make that claim. Whoever has spent some time with it will have problems forgetting it and will wonder what the artist has to offer beyond this crystal image. For me, that doesn’t really matter. This picture is enough. It’s a rare example of a contemporary painting that seems to me in every sense of the word perfect.
