About Green Vase With Flowers and Fruit

The artwork “Green Vase With Flowers and Fruit” by Aldemir Martins, created in 2001, is a vivid representation of the still life genre, executed in the Naive Art (Primitivism) style. The painting portrays a plump, black vase decorated with a simple white floral design, set against a backdrop of a warm yellow wall that meets an orange surface, suggesting a table. From the neck of the vase springs an exuberant bouquet of flowers, illustrated in bright, bold colors such as yellow, red, blue, purple, and pink, with the petals outlined in black to give clear definition against the colorful background. These colors stand out vividly, providing a striking contrast to the dusky green leaves. The use of flat, unmodulated color and direct, simplified drawing reflects the characteristics of the Naive Art movement, showing a disregard for strict perspective and embracing a more instinctual, expressive approach to rendering subjects.
