Description
Striking large-scale abstract painting executed in November 2010 by Antonio Pérez Portabella, showcasing the artist at full artistic maturity. The composition is built from suspended chromatic blocks that appear to hover within a charged pictorial space, creating a visual rhythm that feels both architectural and musical.
Deep blues confront warmer tonal fields, generating a controlled tension that reinforces the conceptual weight of the title Decadencia, interpreted here not as decline but as transformation and evolution. The brushwork is confident and direct, with a palpable surface texture that gives the painting physical presence, while the overall structure remains balanced, measured, and deliberate.
The reverse bears the repeated title, date, and the artist’s customary initials, confirming the work’s conceptual clarity and its coherence within Portabella’s abstract body of work. A strong, intellectually grounded piece, well suited for collectors of postwar and contemporary European abstraction.
About the Artist
Antonio Pérez Portabella (Barcelona, 1944) is part of the generation of Catalan painters who developed a highly personal language within Mediterranean abstraction. His work is defined by the tension between structure and emotion, where geometry is not rigid but breathable, and color acts as both form and atmosphere. Working independently of transient trends, Portabella has built a consistent and disciplined oeuvre appreciated by discerning collectors for its compositional rigor, chromatic intelligence, and understated authority.
His works are held in select private collections and are particularly valued for their ability to engage contemporary architectural spaces with depth and restraint.
