About Green Mist

“Green Mist” by Norman Lewis, created in 1948, is an abstract work in the medium of oil. The piece exemplifies the Abstract Expressionism movement and measures 94 x 81 cm. The genre of the artwork is abstract.

In the artwork, Lewis masterfully employs an intricate interplay of colors and forms to create an ethereal and dynamic composition. A prevailing mist of green, from which the artwork derives its name, seems to enshroud the canvas, giving rise to a perceivable sense of depth and movement. Interwoven lines and shapes, seemingly both chaotic and deliberate, create a rhythmic pattern that invites viewers to explore the layers within the mist. The delicate balance of darker and lighter shades, along with the subtle inclusion of other hues, contributes to the overall abstract nature, making it a compelling example of Lewis’s contribution to Abstract Expressionism.
