AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Portrait #14 is a 2019 abstract painting by Belgian artist Dave Schweitzer (born 1972), executed in acrylic on canvas. The work measures 150 × 100 cm, giving it a strong physical presence while remaining easy to place in a contemporary interior. It is titled, dated, and signed on the reverse.

Bold black gestures move across the surface, cutting through vibrant passages of red, yellow, and blue. These colours are layered over a muted green ground, creating contrast, depth, and visual tension. The brushwork is expressive yet controlled, with visible drips and overlaps that lend rhythm and momentum to the composition.

Rather than a literal portrait, the work suggests an emotional or psychological presence—something felt rather than described. The composition reveals itself gradually and rewards closer viewing.

The painting was acquired directly from the artist in 2019 and is in very good condition, with no visible damage or restoration. Comparable works by Schweitzer have appeared in Belgian auction contexts, including benefit sales at established houses in Antwerp, underlining his visibility within the contemporary art scene.

A confident, self-contained example of contemporary European abstraction, well suited to a serious private collection or a refined modern space.
