Heinz Koppel

Heinz Koppel, a British artist of German origin, found inspiration in Wales where he resided for much of his life. After fleeing Nazi Germany, Koppel studied art in London under Martin Bloch, adopting influences from German Expressionism, Surrealism, and Freudian psychoanalysis. His mystical and fantastical paintings often depicted the Welsh countryside and decaying industrial areas. Koppel's work gained recognition through exhibitions in London galleries, but he remains relatively unknown in his homeland. His contributions to the 56 Group Wales helped elevate modern Welsh art. Many of his works can be found in museums and galleries in South Wales.
