About the Item

This is a dynamic and vividly colored diptych that blends abstraction with expressive movement. Each canvas speaks to the other, creating a fluid conversation between form and color across the central divide. The work features a rich interplay of deep greens, purples, and blues, punctuated by energetic bursts of orange, yellow, and white. These saturated pigments seem to float and bleed into one another, evoking natural forces—perhaps turbulent water, wind-swept landscapes, or organic growth. There's a sense of motion and transformation throughout, as if the colors are in the process of becoming something new. The left panel leans more toward earthy tones, with olive green and burnt orange dominating the upper left quadrant, while the right panel offers cooler tones and a stronger presence of blue, creating a sense of atmospheric depth. In both, the forms are suggestive rather than literal, encouraging viewers to interpret the imagery based on their own perception and emotion.

Urban Abstraction (ripped off posters) Italian Expressionist Painting on Canvas
By Andrea Spinelli
Located in Firenze, IT
The present work of art titled "Urban Abstraction (ripped off posters)" is part of a series of paintings that the artist composed in the 1980s and 1990s inspired by the observation of the urban reality of those years. The artist take the cue from his walks in Florence, both in the center and in the suburbs, and by the observation of billboards and posters scattered throughout the city. The mass of information, colors, messages and words were carried on the canvas with acrylic colors, ideally reconstructing the tears and overlaps of all the information and advertising contained on these huge sheets of paper that invade our cities. The geometric lines are overlaid with jagged lines, overlaps and color dripping and also the choice in the color palette, with different shades of white, gray, rose, orange red and blue helps in rendering the result of the tears and ripped paper. The result is a beautiful multicolored modern abstract canvas, both aesthetically and ethically, with many rich layers of color, texture and expression in which the artist leaves his own message. The painting is housed in a simple modern white lacquer wood frame. Andrea Spinelli...
