About this artwork
The title of this painting comes from comments artist Robert Motherwell made about abstract art.
”The large format, at one blow, destroyed the century-long tendency of the French to domesticate modern painting, to make it intimate. We replaced the nude girl and the French door with a modern Stonehenge, with a sense of the sublime and the tragic that had not existed since Goya and Turner.”

« My art practice turns initially vague, fleeting, and amorphous ideas, gestures, and feelings into solid, concrete, and comprehensible works of art. »
Preston Trombly is an award-winning artist based in the United States whose paintings have been exhibited nationally and in France. In addition, his art is featured in publications such as The Boston Voyager, King's Road Magazine, QNS, etc. Trombly describes his striking abstractions as being about the materials themselves and how they interact with each other. He employs bold gestures, colors, shapes and mark-making to externalize aspects of his inner world.
