The artwork is titled “Nocturne,” created by Zao Wou-Ki in 1955. It is an abstract piece belonging to the Art Informel movement.
In the artwork, a restless amalgamation of forms is presented through dynamic brushstrokes and a richly textured surface, embodying the essence of the Art Informel movement. Dominated by dark and earthy hues, punctuated by bursts of red and blue, the composition exudes a sense of chaos and spontaneity. The interplay of light and dark, along with the random yet harmonious distribution of colors, evokes a nocturnal ambiance. This abstract piece, devoid of any discernable figures, invites the viewer to immerse themselves in the emotive and expressive aesthetic that Zao Wou-Ki is renowned for.
