Curatorial Description (in English):
In this powerful German Expressionist Abstract painting by ArNoUx, two figures emerge from a tempest of color and texture — a father and son, possibly from the ancient Jewish lineage, wandering through the desert in desperate search of sustenance and hope. The central figure, rugged and solemn, evokes the spirit of a John-like traveler, navigating the brutal uncertainties of life during the tumultuous era of Herod. Layers of thick impasto and explosive brushstrokes in vibrant reds, yellows, and blues create an atmosphere of struggle, chaos, and unwavering faith. The companion beside him, more fragile and youthful, reflects the generational perseverance rooted in divine promise. This piece channels a haunting journey of survival, faith, and silent endurance through an abstract, visceral lens.
