When art and film become entwined: painter Sandro Kopp

In 2018, Sandro Kopp was tasked by film director Wes Anderson with creating ten monumental paintings for the film The French Dispatch in less than three months.  Kopp’s works needed to look like the work of a singular genius (the fictional “criminally insane” artist Moses Rosenthaler, played by Benicio Del Toro) who had created the work while imprisoned over three years.  No pressure then! The Rosenthal Paintings is a project Kopp has described as the most challenging and satisfying project of his career thus far.
