Online exclusive - Daniel Enkaoua: Longings Part II
May 28 – Jul 10, 2021
Litvak Contemporary is proud to present an online exhibition of recent works by Daniel Enkaoua. Enkaoua who embarked on his artistic career in the 1980s has managed to formulate over the years a unique approach to painting that has been associated with impressionism due to his attention to the moment, to the flood of light and his characteristic rapid brush strokes. Yet despite the presence of these and other stylistic elements. Enkaoua’s paintings cannot be associated with a specific artistic movement or period. Ignoring the dictates of any one style Enkaoua plays with different modes of representation in a manner that echoes additional tension within its oeuvre. As one observes his portraits, his still life or landscapes it is difficult to know whether these painting belong to the present or to the past.
