signed ‘Schluss’ (lower right) oil on canvas 91 × 121 cm painted in 1970s David Schluss, born in Israel in 1943, began studying art at in early age. Influence from great masters such as Chagall, Miro, and Botero inspired Schluss to create his own individualized style and technique of painting. He began experimenting by painting with his hands, using no paintbrush or spatula. He says ‘With the palm of my hands I can get a play of light that I could never achieve with a brush. I start with the abstract, and figures emerge’… A deeply symbolic depiction of a wedding gathering rendered in Schloss’s distinctive semi-abstract style, where faceless figures merge within warm ochre and cream tones under an enveloping canopy. The work embodies themes of unity, spirituality, and human intimacy.
