About the Item
This dynamic oil on canvas by Daniel Castan is currently on display and available for sale at Signet Contemporary Art Gallery and online.
In Traffic – 5th Avenue, the viewer is plunged into the rush and hum of a rainy day in Manhattan. The crosswalk leads into the frame like a river of reflection, guiding the eye toward a luminous central strip where headlights, signage, and streetlights merge into brilliance.
Cool blue tones define the towering architecture while warm yellows dance across the street, heightening the tension between structure and spontaneity. Castan’s brushwork is both architectural and improvisational—like jazz played with a palette knife.
This is not just traffic, but a city in motion—epic, immersive, alive.
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.
