Venetian #2 by Remaut.
Acrylic, mixed media on canvas
120 x 100 cm |1997
Commanding the space, this large-scale work fuses raw emotion with atmospheric abstraction. Venetian #2 is defined by its restless intensity and cascading verticality, where layered textures and tonal shifts create a sense of movement and depth across the surface.
Created in 1997, this piece reflects a pivotal period in Remaut’s practice, where abstraction becomes increasingly refined and contemplative. The balance between light and dark, surface and structure, gives the composition a quiet yet commanding presence.
This painting was selected for exhibition at the Beecroft Art Gallery (Southend Museums), marking a significant recognition of the artist’s work within a major public institution.
Presented at Xochi Art Gallery as part of the New Horizons exhibition.
