Artwork description
St. Martin and the Beggar (El Greco Improvisation) reinterprets the spiritual drama of El Greco through a modern, abstracted lens. Figures dissolve into vibrant strokes of blues, pinks, and oranges, their forms suggested rather than defined, giving the work a dreamlike intensity.
At the center, St. Martin, clad in soft, fragmented armor, sits astride a horse rendered in bold yet fractured shapes. Opposite him, the beggar’s figure emerges from a haze of color, his vulnerability emphasized by his almost transparent presence. The gesture of giving and receiving remains clear, yet it is refracted through a prism of painterly improvisation.
The composition evokes both motion and transcendence, where sacred charity becomes a universal gesture beyond time. In dissolving contours and blurring identities, the painting emphasizes essence over realism—transforming El Greco’s spiritual vision into a symphony of color, rhythm, and luminous abstraction.
