About this artwork

Based on a family member's photo, this Fauvist reinterpretation uses a raw, primal palette and a composition consisting of a series of sweeping curves says artist Robert Hofherr. Gesture is far more important here than representational detail, he adds, suggesting that the expressive rendering is a metaphor for the quickly evolving light at this particular time of day. Not a specific sunset, but something far more elemental — the very first sunset, perhaps? It arrives wired and ready to hang.
