Guy Yanai


























There is a relaxed elegance to Guy Yanai’s paintings. A feeling of warmth and good light pervades. Characterised by a patchwork of shapes his works are assembled in a way that is both purposeful and deliberate. Blocks of solid colour butt up against one another describing surfaces and space; the skill with which they are balanced making the paintings resonate.  This is bright, sharp, observant painting.
