In his distinctive style, he depicts everyday experiences from contemporary life and reduces his surroundings to schematic blocks of colors in constant motion. ‘Running People’ is a statue that depicts one of Opie’s signature subjects - standing and walking people - in his minimal and graphic aesthetic. Opie uses anodised aluminium to create the figure mounted on Corian bases, which gives depth to the piece. ‘Running People’ is a reflection of our own everyday life, and captures the artist’s skill in distilling the commonplace experience of life into concise works which still blaze with profundity and emotion. For Opie, it is the accessories, such as a hairstyle, clothes or headphones, that are more important than the person’s face and its features. He once noted that when we pass someone on the street we only know their style and their type. His work currently resides in The Museum of Modern Art in New York, the National Portrait Gallery in London, the Stedelijk Museum in Amsterdam, and others. Opie lives and works in his hometown of London, United Kingdom.\u003c\/span\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"David Benrimon Fine Art Gallery","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47470493696153,"sku":null,"price":10000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0500\/7147\/0233\/files\/ScreenShot2020-12-01at4.43.12PM.png?v=1778861748","url":"https:\/\/shop.davidbenrimon.com\/products\/running-people-elvis-by-julian-opie","provider":"David Benrimon Fine Art Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
