Night Life
His work is hot, hip and bursting with the energy of a night on the town. The improvisational painting style of Michael Flohr resonates between abstract composition and representational cityscape with an excitement unique to contemporary artists today. Expressive of his own individualism, Flohr’s style transcends visual boundaries of reality while imposing personal narratives, thereby re-creating an urban experience that is universal in appeal and intrigue. In Flohr’s image entitled, “Nightlife”, the artist’s manipulation of light, reflection and movement explodes into patterns and rhythms that serve to depict the interaction between man and an environment bursting with colorful, ferocious energy.
Technically motivated by the challenge of capturing the vertical light “falling down” from the sky, Flohr juxtaposes a quiet café and a busy city street after an evening shower through a masterful interplay of light and color. As if filtered through squinted eyes, “Nightlife” represents the artist’s fervent dedication to pure spontaneity, a quality vital and revered in all.
