Summer Night's Bliss 1961

"Summer Night's Bliss" is an abstract oil painting by Hans Hofmann, created in 1961. Hofmann, a pioneer of Abstract Expressionism, utilizes bold strokes and vibrant colors to create a dynamic composition. The interplay of warm reds, oranges, and yellows evokes a sense of energy and excitement, while touches of cool blue and green add depth and contrast. The piece reflects Hofmann's interest in exploring color relationships and his belief that art should express emotion and intuition rather than representational reality.
