All auctions / Contemporary Art / Alejandro Valdes - Umbral XXL
A powerful abstract composition by Alejandro Valde, executed in acrylic on canvas. The work is structured through a rhythmic interplay of black, white, muted blush tones and deep red accents. Layered, weathered surfaces reveal traces of gesture and texture, lending the painting a strong material presence. A network of rectangular and vertical forms creates an architectural visual language, balanced between solidity and fragmentation. The contrast between the dense black areas and the luminous pale passages gives the composition depth, tension and a distinctly contemporary character. With its generous 120 × 100 cm format, this original work makes an impactful statement in a contemporary interior or a collection focused on abstraction, texture and expressive colour.
