The Work of Hillel Selznick
Throughout Selznick's work, there is a constant balance between the monumental and the intimate, which is characterized by acute concentration and care. Additionally to emphasizing the physicality of the materials he uses, his art is driven by the idea of improving humanity. There are nearly infinite emotional fluctuations in every rigorously composed work.
Hillel Selznick is one of the most influential and well-known abstract painters of the present day. His work is characterized by a delicate balance between reflection and vitality. In his paintings, colors are often arranged horizontally and vertically along an axis. The painting shows a great deal of visual delicacy while still remaining refreshingly calm.
Artistic Style
Hillel studied Fauvism and Expressionism in his formal training, using them as references and as models for his own eclectic style. Recently, his focus has shifted from large-scale contemporary abstraction to large-scale contemporary abstraction with a passing nod to reality using acrylic paint and inks.
Selznick’s Work Process
In order to create a narrative for the painting, sketchbooks and sketches are the first step. Before a few decades ago, the form and elements of surrealist compositions were generated by the composition process itself. The blank canvas confronts you directly.
