Jerzy Baranowski, “Untitled”, 2021 – monumental abstract painting, between image and object
Jerzy Baranowski, painting “Untitled”, 2021 impresses with its monumental forms and intense rhythmic structure. Across the surface of the canvas we see thick, intertwined tubular shapes that resist clear interpretation. They appear both organic and engineered – evoking associations with natural fibres, tightly twisted ropes, heavy cables or microscopic tissues. Baranowski focuses on materiality and energy rather than literal representation, leaving room for the viewer’s imagination.
The dense, fleshy texture gives the work a powerful physical presence, while at the same time suggesting movement, as if tension had been frozen in a single frame. The surface is built through a repetitive brush gesture that creates a pulsing, almost sculptural skin. Looking at the painting feels akin to encountering a three-dimensional object whose structure might extend beyond the edges of the canvas.
Baranowski’s work here operates in the space between pure abstraction and tangible materiality. The key element is the tension between what is fluid, flexible and soft and what appears monolithic and unyielding. The cool range of blue-grey tones underlines the slightly industrial character of the forms, while also introducing a sense of focus and stillness. Rather than describing a recognisable scene, “Untitled” acts as an experience of presence, energy and motion inscribed into matter itself.
This 2021 “Untitled” painting is ideal for collectors looking for strong, raw abstract works suited to modern interiors, offices and public spaces, where art is meant to project concentration, power and quiet intensity.
