Max ‘RIPO’ Rippon

San Francisco

On the occasion of their 10th anniversary, White Walls and Shooting Gallery currently Cut from the Chase, a solo show by Barcelona-based artist Max ‘RIPO’ Rippon.

With 20 new works on paper, Cut from the Chase is RIPO’s continued exploration of wordplay and typography using ink, spray-paint, watercolors and 1-shot enamel on hand cut paper.

Handmade signage, calligraphy, and graffiti are obvious influences in Cut from the Chase, though the finished pieces are a new take on lettering. Through careful repetitions of cutting and layering many of the pieces begin to enter into a nearly sculptural field.
