About the Item

A large powerful abstract oil painting on canvas by Jean Soyer (38.2 x 57.5 inches). The artwork features dramatic sweeping movements in deep ultramarine blue contrasting with bold black strokes and red highlights. Created using Soyer's signature technique of large brushes and combs, the painting exhibits remarkable textural depth and dynamic energy through thick impasto application. This commanding abstract composition exemplifies the confluence of gestural abstraction and controlled chaos. The dramatic interplay of deep blues against stark black and red elements, together with the white background, evokes a sense of turbulence while maintaining a sophisticated compositional balance. The work shows clear influences from the bold gestural approach of Georges Mathieu, particularly in its sweeping, dynamic brushstrokes. The painting's spatial organization and color intensity also recalls the powerful abstractions of Pierre Soulages, especially in its exploration of light and movement through contrasting tones. While Soyer acknowledges Nicolas de Staël's influence in his work, this particular piece leans more toward the dynamic expressionism of Hans Hartung, especially in its energetic mark-making and tension between controlled and spontaneous elements. The painting's textural complexity, achieved through Soyer's distinctive use of combs and large brushes, creates a compelling visual rhythm that draws viewers into its depths while maintaining a contemporary edge in abstract expressionism.
