Lot #17: “Abstract Embrace” — original Striking Mid-Century Modern Cubist Expressionist Painting

Presenting a bold and emotionally charged mid-century modern abstract painting that commands attention from across the room. This powerful work features intertwined figures rendered in an intense Cubist-Expressionist style, with angular forms, sculptural contours, and a masterful use of saturated color. The deep ultramarine background creates a dramatic stage for the vivid yellows, ambers, and ochres, while the sharp geometric facial planes bring to mind the influence of Picasso’s late Cubist period, Wifredo Lam, and modern Latin-American abstractism. The composition is both intimate and enigmatic — a pair of figures locked in a moment that feels protective, spiritual, and deeply human. Housed in a vintage wood frame that enhances its gallery-ready presence, this piece is visually arresting and highly decorative, perfect for modern interiors, curated collections, or anyone seeking a statement artwork with emotional impact.
