About the Item

This striking oil on canvas by Daniel Castan is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online. Flatiron captures the iconic New York building with sculptural power, its distinctive triangular form towering at the canvas’s centre. In hues of slate grey and stark white, Castan defines structure through texture rather than detail, relying on palette knife strokes to convey volume, reflection, and momentum. Yellow light dances along the edges of the composition—suggesting taxis, windows, and wet streets—while the background melts into atmospheric mist. The scene feels both monumental and ephemeral, a fleeting glimpse of something eternal. In Flatiron, Castan transforms steel and stone into rhythm and energy. Artist Biography: Born in 1959 in Dordogne, Daniel Castan draws from a very young age. He graduated from the School of Fine Arts of Bordeaux. When he was 40 years old, he started painting again just for the pure pleasure of it. At age 48, he left everything to follow his dreams. At the beggining of his professional life Daniel Castan travelled a lot to New York and Hong Kong. He had a special fascination for the urban world and their exaggerated perspectives. In his paintings, he tries to recreate these graphic environments. The lines of the buildings get lost in the sky, the long avenues seem endless, the colors collide. The artist works direclty from his memories and imagination. Daniel Castan chose to paint with alkyd oil. This kind of oil works just like classical oil, but the binder in it, is a kind of resin that allows accelerated drying. His favorite tool is the knife, it allows him to work with paste, and to draw in different materials.
