Jean SoyerBold Scarlet Horizons: Contemporary Abstract Expressionist Canvas
About the Item
A powerful abstract oil painting on canvas (12x12 inches) by contemporary artist Jean Soyer. The composition features dramatic sweeps of intense crimson and black, balanced by cooler gray tones in the lower portion. Created using thick impasto technique with large brushes and combs, the painting exhibits striking textural qualities and bold horizontal movement. The heavily textured surface creates a compelling interplay of light and shadow across the canvas.
This compelling abstract work showcases Jean Soyer's masterful command of color and texture, particularly evident in the dramatic interplay between fiery reds and deep blacks. The painting's horizontal composition and bold gestural marks echo the powerful abstractions of Nicolas de Staël, while the textural complexity achieved through combing techniques brings to mind the work of Pierre Soulages. The artist's use of thick impasto and decisive brushwork also suggests an affinity with the spontaneous energy of Hans Hartung's abstract expressions.
While Soyer acknowledges influences from Georges Mathieu and Fabienne Verdier, this piece appears to lean more toward the robust materiality and spatial tension characteristic of Soulages's work. The painting exemplifies contemporary abstract expressionism's ongoing dialogue with material and gesture, while maintaining its own distinct voice through Soyer's characteristic bold color choices and textural innovations.
This piece is provided with a basic black varnished L-frame for transport security and convenience.

Dana Frankfort
In the middle of the road, 2017
oil on canvas over panel
48 x 48 x 1.75 inches
For over two decades, Dana Frankfort has explored the vexing periphery between language and sight by painting words. Rather than laying claim to the paintings, controlling their semiotic pulse, her words serve as the formal armature; they prop up, ventilate, and allow the many layers of paint to breathe. Imperatives, allusions, evocations—the words dissolve into a palimpsest of obscured serifs and stems, into color and form.
The title of the work is a phrase from a poem by Carlos Drummond de
Andrade’s “In the Middle of Road.” Here it is, translated from the Portuguese by Elizabeth Bishop...
