Lively Geometric Paintings

Guy Yanai Creates Exciting and Vibrantly Hued Abstract Still Lifes

— February 21, 2013 — Art & Design
Starting with fairly unremarkable objects and mundane scenery as his subjects, Guy Yanai masterfully creates abstract still lifes that are infused with vibrancy and excitement.

Using attractively contrasting colors that simply pop off of the canvas, mostly in shades of bubblegum pink, bright blue and vivid green, the artist creates lively and cheerful scenes. There are many portraits of plants in this series, but none of them are alike and all of them strip away the curvy and organic shapes of the plants, leaving behind a simplified, geometric appearance that looks as though it was created out of pieces of cutout construction paper.

The pretty primary school colors and basic shapes that form each of the abstract still lifes in Guy Yanai's collection add a sweet innocence to the paintings.
Trend Themes
1. Vibrant Abstract Art - Opportunities exist for developing new materials and techniques for creating abstract art that infuses vibrant, contrasting colors into mundane subjects.
2. Geometric Minimalism - The trend towards geometric minimalism and simplification in art and design is reflected in Guy Yanai's series, and presents opportunities for disruptive innovation around more efficient and cost-effective methods of creating geometric shapes and patterns.
3. Simplified Still Lifes - The popularity of simplified still lifes may lead to a trend towards minimalist compositions and pared-down subject matter in other art forms and design industries.
Industry Implications
1. Art - The art industry could explore new ways of creating and packaging vibrant, geometric abstract pieces for display and commercial sale.
2. Interior Design - Interior design firms may find opportunities in incorporating simplistic, geometric still life artwork into their design schemes and offerings.
3. Packaging and Branding - There is potential for creating unique packaging and branding materials using the trendy geometric shapes and bright, primary colors popularized by Guy Yanai's artwork.
