Orlando 1980

"Orlando" is an abstract painting by Albert Irvin, created in 1980. Known for his abstract, gestural paintings, Irvin utilizes bold color and dynamic brushstrokes to create a visually stimulating composition. This piece is a prime example of his signature style, characterized by its use of vibrant hues, layered textures, and expressive marks, which combine to create a sense of movement and depth. Irvin's works are often characterized as "action painting," a style that emphasizes the physical act of painting and its spontaneous, expressive qualities.
