Signed acrylic on canvas 80×120 cm

€ 5.000 – 7.000

A brilliant composition from the ‘Small Tankers’ series, created by the ‘absent’ master Dimitris Mytaras.  A great piece of masterful artistry in which a true chromatic musical composition with an enticing inner rhythm swiftly causes the eye to travel intensely beyond the two dimensions. The shapes, the sketched volumes, the pure colors, freely construct a dynamic composition that reflects sensations. With his paintbrush the artist leaves the trail of his truth on the canvas: beyond the contours or the form or the plastic formulation of the volumes there is a thought full of finesse. His abstract mood powerful line and his color tensions coexist with the sharpness of observation revealing his deeper inner relationship with the traditional values of painting.
