Edin Zenun, “Pascalis 3,” 2024, oil on canvas, 10 x 8 inches (26 x 21 cm)

Description

I met Edin 7 years ago, after he had taken a two-year hiatus from painting to draw. This break resulted in a wealth of small (26 x 21 cm) abstract canvases. Zenun’s considered strokes, muted colors, and romantic dedication to his process seduced me.

I have watched variations on this theme develop since, with inspiration drawn from north-German expressionist architecture, jazz, and ancient Greek sexuality.

This is contained in Edin’s tried and true format, yet expands his vocabulary of convincing and accessible abstraction, nodding to his influences but never becoming subservient to them
