Irena Lenartowicz presents Composition with Gold - XXL, an original acrylic abstract expressionist painting signed on the back, dated 2026 and in perfect condition, measuring 160 by 110 cm (100 by 150 cm on canvas) and originating from Poland.
Description from the seller
The painting “Composition with Gold” by Irena Lenartowicz is an example of contemporary abstract acrylic art, strongly rooted in the aesthetics of Abstract Expressionism and so-called action painting.
Character and Style
At first glance, the work reveals an intense, almost “alive” structure. The artist uses techniques such as:
- dripping,
- splattering,
- layering and wiping paint.
This makes the composition feel spontaneous, as if it were created in a single emotional gesture. Jackson Pollock is often referenced as a point of comparison for this style of painting.
Color and Contrast
The most striking element is the contrast between:
cool tones (grays, blues, blacks),
and warm, luminous gold.
Gold functions here not only as a color but also as a symbol—of light, energy, luxury, or hope. The contrast with the darker background builds drama and depth.
Sense of Movement and Space
The horizontal layout and the “dripping” vertical lines can evoke different associations:
reflections of light on water,
a city skyline,
or an abstract emotional landscape.
The piece conveys a strong sense of motion and process—as if we are witnessing the act of creation itself.
Interpretation
The painting can be interpreted in several ways:
as harmony within chaos,
a visualization of life’s energy,
or a dialogue between structure (order) and spontaneity (splashes of paint).
