About the Item
This exceptional artwork is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online. Taxi - 5th Avenue envelops the viewer in a softened, atmospheric vision of New York. Castan’s oil on canvas work employs a muted palette of sandy beiges, pale greys, and subtle ochres, interspersed with the sharp glint of yellow taxis. His abstracted cityscape style distills the essence of the avenue, focusing on mood and light rather than strict architectural representation.
The composition’s perspective pulls you into the vanishing point, where the mist swallows the skyline. Broad, textural palette knife strokes form towering façades that seem to shimmer in the diffused light. The city’s outlines are suggested rather than defined, evoking the sensory experience of walking down a rain-washed street in the early hours.
Through Taxi - 5th Avenue, Castan captures the poetry in urban transience. It’s an image that lingers in the mind — a fleeting atmospheric moment transformed into a timeless work of art.
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.
