Black Form, Blue Orbit
A sweeping black angular form cuts across a pale blue circle and layered fields of red, yellow, lavender, white, and turquoise, with scattered numbers and marks embedded throughout. Thick acrylic passages and scraped, gestural strokes create a tactile canvas surface, while strong outlines hold the fragmented composition together. Its vivid contrast and urban energy suit a living room, office, or hallway.
Jack Vainunska
Jacques Vainunska was born in Lille, France, in 1948 and moved to Israel in 1971. A self-taught painter and photographer, he has exhibited extensively in Israel and internationally. His earlier works explored urban landscapes, contrasting historic neighborhoods with monumental modern architecture. Over time, his practice evolved toward a more layered and contemporary visual language, combining portraiture, abstraction, typography, musical notation and symbolic imagery. His work draws on music, literature, Jewish and Israeli culture, memory and historical figures. Working mainly in acrylic, Vainunska builds his paintings through layering, revision and intuitive discovery. The result is a distinctive body of work in which figurative imagery, abstraction and graphic elements merge into a highly recognizable style.
