More about this artwork

The painting depicts a tightly packed urban scene, characterized by the vertical rise of buildings. Dominating the composition is a historic tower nestled between what appears to be modern high-rises. The tower and its neighboring structures are rendered with a rich variety of shades, giving an impression of texture and age, marked by the play of light and shadow that suggests depth and dimensionality. The color scheme is muted, primarily composed of earthy tones of browns and grays, possibly reflecting the dense and somewhat somber character of city life. Architectural elements such as windows, ledges, and facades are loosely defined, giving the painting a slightly blurred, almost impressionistic feel. This style captures the bustling vibrancy of Manhattan, where old and new architecture coexists in dynamic harmony.

Artist

"I'll start by saying that I'm a rather superficial person in that sense,

that I don't interfere in the twists and turns of art's past, present directions and visions of the future.

My aim in making art is a simple, uncomplicated aesthetic.

I was born in Kaunas. My childhood was spent in Žaliakalnis. Later studies

Vilnius Art Institute (now Academy) and after graduation

appointment to Klaipėda. A beautiful, painfully pleasant past.

Now it will soon be thirty years that I have been working with furniture in New York. I have a long-standing understanding of the professional routine, the functionality and visual expression of interiors. 

And to go back to the beginning, I want to add that the human living environment

is divided into what is interesting, beautiful and attractive to them, and what is alien (in this case

I am not talking in the social sense). My wish is that a person who hangs a picture should  feel good without noticing it, without drawing attention to it.

That would be the point," the artist introduces himself.

Gediminas Sprindys works in watercolour and makes excellent use of its ability to layer colours, colour transparency, translucency and spills. His work is dominated by urban landscapes, images of Kaunas modernism and New York skyscrapers. The soft watercolour is an unexpected contrast to the depicted glass and concrete, giving lightness and gently reminding us of temporality.
