“Jane Birkin #2” is a piece by the contemporary artist Julian Schnabel, created in the year 1990. This work is part of the Neo-Expressionism movement and falls under the genre of abstract art. It forms part of the “Jane Birkin Paintings (1990)” series. The artwork features prominent abstract elements combined with text to deliver its unique aesthetic.
The artwork itself takes on a triangular, almost wedge-like form, with a predominantly neutral, muted background. The central portion of the artwork prominently displays the name “Jane Birkin” in a calligraphic style, emphasizing the connection to its series. Streaks and patches of bold red paint provide contrast against the beige backdrop, infusing the composition with dynamic energy. The abstract nature of the piece, combined with the text, suggests an exploration of identity and form.
