The artwork, titled “Sparks,” was created by Peter Alexander in 1987 and is associated with the Neo-Expressionism art movement. This piece belongs to the genre of cityscape, capturing an urban scene rendered with expressive intensity and vivid imagery.
In “Sparks,” the viewer is presented with a dynamic nighttime cityscape, where the horizon is dotted with numerous bright lights, evoking a sense of bustling urban activity. The sky above is dark and cloudy, adding a dramatic contrast to the illuminated landscape below. The foreground features abstract shapes and intense bursts of light, resembling sparks or flares, further emphasizing the vibrant and energetic atmosphere of the scene. The artwork uses bold colors and expressive brush strokes to create a rich, textured composition that conveys both the allure and the frenetic energy of city life at night.
