AI-assisted summary
Description from the seller
Arnold Sharrad (1946-2015)
Abstract work by Arnold Sharrad, created in 1990, during the mature phase of his painting research.
The composition unfolds on a bright white background, on which organic and fluid shapes emerge, characterized by a vibrant yet balanced palette: deep greens, intense yellows, touches of blue, and darker accents that create rhythm and visual tension.
The painterly gesture is free and controlled at the same time, typical of Sharrad's lyrical abstraction, where color seems to settle in layers, hinting at drips, transparencies, and overlaps. The whole suggests a subtle balance between spontaneity and harmony, inviting the viewer to an emotional rather than narrative reading of the work.
Mixed media on canvas.
Signed and dated ’90 on the reverse.
Dimensions: 66 x 54 cm.
A decorative and elegant piece, suitable for both a contemporary interior and a mid-20th-century abstract art collection.
Shipping / Pickup
Careful and professional packaging, tracked shipping. Insurance on request (all costs borne by the buyer). Any duties or customs charges are the buyer's responsibility; possible delays and duties also for Europe, shipping from Switzerland.
Pickup in Geneva by appointment is possible and recommended.
