About Flight of Colors

The artwork titled “Flight of Colors,” created by Carmen Herrera in 1949, is a remarkable piece within the Abstract Expressionism movement. This abstract genre artwork features a dynamic interplay of colors and shapes, characteristic of Herrera’s bold and geometric approach to painting.

The artwork is composed of an intricate mosaic of geometric shapes, predominantly in shades of orange, pink, and olive green. The composition is meticulously balanced, with triangles, rectangles, and circular segments creating a rhythmic pattern across the canvas. The juxtaposition of these colors and shapes induces a sense of movement and depth, evoking an impression of vibrant energy and harmony. Each segment of the artwork appears to be carefully designed to interact with the others, reflecting Herrera’s meticulous attention to form and composition within the abstract expressionist framework.
