About the Item
This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online. Yellow Cabs in NYC III by José Martinez captures the vibrant energy of a bustling New York City night, where two iconic yellow cabs race down the street, their headlights cutting through the misty air. The artist skillfully employs a dark, moody palette to depict the towering skyscrapers that loom overhead, their windows illuminated against the deep blues and blacks of the night. The slick, reflective surface of the road mirrors the city lights, creating an almost dreamlike ambiance.
Martinez’s use of thick brushstrokes brings texture and movement to the scene, emphasizing the constant motion of the city that never sleeps. The blurred reflections of lights on the wet pavement give the painting a dynamic sense of fluidity, echoing the relentless pace of urban life. This piece is a perfect representation of the gritty yet alluring allure of New York City, capturing its essence through the lens of a rainy evening.
"Yellow Cabs in NYC III" is available for purchase at Signet Contemporary Art, Chelsea, and online. This evocative piece invites you to bring the electrifying pulse of New York into your space, a reminder of the city's energy and beauty even in its rain-soaked moments.
Artist biography:
Paul Jansen (1960) was born in Groningen, The Netherlands, and studied at the renowned Minerva Academy in his hometown. Initially beginning his artistic career as a photographer, the influence of photography remains evident in his paintings today, particularly in the unconventional compositions and extreme framing of his works. This is especially notable in his distinctive cow portraits, which have become a central theme in Jansen’s art.
For many years, the cow has been one of Jansen’s primary sources of inspiration. He is fascinated by the earthy, curious nature of these animals and captivated by their unique, often absurd forms and unpretentious presence. Unlike traditional livestock painters of past centuries, who often placed cattle in the background to enhance the landscape, Jansen brings the cow to the forefront. In his work, the landscape fades into insignificance or vanishes entirely, allowing the cow to take center stage. The result is an intimate and engaging portrayal where the cow’s presence dominates, often filling the frame so completely that the animal almost seems to reach out beyond it. Some of his portraits even verge on the abstract, as Jansen uses color and flattened forms to emphasize the cow’s essence.
Jansen paints the cow as an individual with its own soul and distinct personality. His use of dark tones in the animal's coat and the backgrounds contrasts strikingly with details such as the light pink of a cow’s nose, creating a powerful visual dynamic. His work masterfully balances naturalism with abstraction, employing colors and forms to express the core identity of the cow. The textured, tactile quality of his paintings further enhances this, as Jansen works with oil paint on board, building up multiple layers to achieve rich, deep tones. His cows, often depicted in a variety of black and white hues, feature the animal's expressive eyes and wet nose as the central focal points.
Paul Jansen’s work is represented in several prominent figurative galleries across the Netherlands, and his paintings are part of numerous private and corporate collections worldwide.
