Description

Oil painting by Dan Sabau

Dan Sabau began depicting the figure at the age of 17, and has been exploring the human form for much of his adult life. Since moving to Brooklyn, his work has been focused on balancing the abstract and the figurative. His portrait work reflects this balancing act, with beautifully rendered features such as eyes and ears counteracting abstract shapes such as polka dots or loosely controlled layers of washes . Sabau has shown his work at many spaces in and around New York City, including Sensei Gallery, One Art Space, and the Leroy Neiman Gallery in Manhattan, as well as the Art + Design Market at the Bridgehampton Museum.
