{"product_id":"rafael-soriano-1920-2015-untitled-1980","title":"RAFAEL SORIANO (1920–2015) – Untitled, 1980","description":"Painted in 1980, this luminous composition by Rafael Soriano exemplifies the artist’s celebrated mature style, in which abstraction became a profound vehicle for exploring spirituality, light, and the invisible forces of existence. Executed in oil on canvas, the work is distinguished by its ethereal atmosphere, subtle chromatic transitions, and radiant inner luminosity that seem to emerge from within the composition itself.\n\nRather than depicting recognizable forms, Soriano creates a contemplative visual experience through softly diffused volumes, floating organic shapes, and translucent layers of warm amber, violet, crimson, and golden tones. The painting invites viewers beyond the physical world into a realm of meditation and transcendence, where light functions not merely as illumination but as a metaphor for spiritual awakening and universal consciousness.\n\nFollowing his exile from Cuba, Soriano increasingly abandoned representation in favor of a deeply personal abstract language inspired by mysticism, philosophy, and metaphysical reflection. His paintings from this mature period are characterized by an extraordinary sense of stillness and inner radiance, earning widespread recognition as some of the most significant achievements in postwar Latin American abstraction.\n\nCreated during one of the most important decades of his artistic career, this work demonstrates Soriano’s exceptional mastery of color, atmosphere, and emotional resonance. It stands as an outstanding example of the artist’s enduring pursuit of transcendence through painting, affirming his place among the foremost masters of twentieth-century Cuban and Latin American art.\n\nThe artwork is signed and dated by the artist.","brand":"Private Collection.","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44138914906177,"sku":null,"price":30000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0732\/2140\/6785\/files\/rafael-soriano-1920-2015-untitled-1980-1156041.jpg?v=1783912508","url":"https:\/\/delamoart.com\/fr\/products\/rafael-soriano-1920-2015-untitled-1980","provider":"Del Amo Art Gallery","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
