Adrian Ghenie's "Rest During the Flight Into Egypt" is a contemporary painting that uses expressive brushstrokes and vibrant colors to depict a scene of figures resting on a railway track. The painting's title refers to the biblical story of the Holy Family fleeing to Egypt, but Ghenie's rendition presents a contemporary take on the theme, utilizing a modern setting and stylized figures. The use of layered textures and the juxtaposition of figurative and abstract elements creates a sense of unease and uncertainty, characteristic of Ghenie's artistic style, known for its exploration of memory, history, and the human condition.
