Alexander Markovich "Untitled No. 28" Circa 1985

Creator: Alexander Markovich
Offered by: High Style Deco

Description
This refined ink on paper work was realized by the renowned American artist Alexander Markovich circa 1985, which the scholar Svetlana Rakic called "The most dispersed and energy-charged of Markovich's ink paintings..." Using an expressionistic style, full of verve, Markovich creates an image of a solitary figure in "hieroglyphic form" seemingly in the midst of an ecstatic dance. The intentional ink splatters and wispy strokes (suggestive of calligraphic scroll paintings) imbue the piece with a dynamic energy that echoes the figure's movement. With its economy of form and timelessly modern sensibility, Markovich showcases his ability to create a compelling image with minimalist means. It would be a winning addition to any style of interior from classic Mid Century Modern to contemporary. The piece is documented on page 73 of "Alexander Markovich: A Journey Towards the Divine" and comes presented in a custom gilded gallery frame.
