AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Oil on board.
Neo-expressionist style / figurative expressionism.
Dimensions: 100 × 82 cm (with frame).
Framed artwork on display.

Striking large-format portrait executed in oil on panel, within neo-expressionism and the expressive figuration of the second half of the 20th century. The work depicts a male figure indoors, constructed through an energetic and gestural brushstroke, where color and matter take on a leading role in contrast to naturalistic representation.

The pictorial language reveals clear influences from European Expressionism, especially German Expressionism (Kirchner, Nolde, Kokoschka), as well as Spanish expressive figuration of the 20th century and international neo-expressionism developed since the seventies. These references are manifested in the deliberate deformation of the face and hands, the use of intense and unnatural colors, and the strong psychological charge of the portrait.

The palette, dominated by blues, greens, and deep reds, intensifies the emotional tension of the scene, while the painterly materiality, applied densely and decisively, adds texture, rhythm, and physical presence to the work. The background, treated synthetically and almost abstractly, dialogues with the figure and accentuates its expressive isolation.

Due to its visual impact, large scale, and expressive force, it is a piece of notable appeal for collectors of modern and contemporary painting, expressionist figuration, and works with a strong emotional impact, ideal for spaces that require a work with character and personality.

The artwork is framed, ready for display.
