“Dirt Road – Tropical Institute,” created in 2003 by the Belgian artist Luc Tuymans, is a notable piece belonging to the New European Painting art movement, categorized under the abstract genre. The artwork features two abstract, darkly toned squares, each depicting a different scene. The first square on the left appears to be a dark, indistinct mass, while the second square on the right includes a structure with a greenish element at the top. The minimalistic depiction uses a limited color palette, evoking a somber and contemplative mood, characteristic of Tuymans’ subtle yet profound abstract style. The title and artist’s signature are present on the lower right corner, affirming its authenticity and provenance.
