This work is a masterpiece of geometric abstraction, capturing the essence of modernity through its bold use of shapes and colors. At the center of the composition stands a majestic structure composed of multiple rectangular and cubic blocks. Bright, contrasting colors, such as red, blue, green and yellow, create a striking and dynamic visual harmony. The background of the work depicts a serene and uniformly blue sky, cut by a green horizon line which seems to symbolize the transition between earth and sky. The artist uses hues of blue to impart depth and tranquility, while green tones anchor the image in an earthy context, accentuating the contrast with the bold and slender architectural forms of the central structure. The black base of the structure serves as a solid foundation, allowing the brighter colors to take on their full expressive dimension. This juxtaposition of dark and light hues guides the viewer's eye toward the top of the tower, where the colors almost seem to interpenetrate, creating an illusion of upward movement. Each element of this work is carefully balanced to provide a robust yet refined aesthetic. The choice of strict geometric shapes combines with a vibrant color palette to evoke a feeling of progress and innovation. This painting does not just represent a simple structure; it evokes the human aspiration to rise, to innovate, and to create lasting monuments of beauty and strength. This painting is undoubtedly a striking example of modern art, capturing the essence of geometry and color in a way that provokes thought and awe.

Presentation
In the tradition of great production designers (Alexandre Trauner, Ken Adam), Dean Tavoularis has discreetly established himself in the history of cinema, leaving his mark on around thirty films, including almost the entire work of Francis F. Coppola.
Trained at Disney (Lady and the Tramp, Mary Poppins), this son of Greek immigrants, settled in California, took drawing and architecture classes, before materializing the plans of Arthur Penn (Bonnie and Clyde, Little Big Man) and Michelangelo Antonioni (Zabriskie Point). Each of his shoots requires long hours of location scouting and documentary research, his secret for defining the opaque atmosphere of The Godfather or the humidity of Apocalypse Now, the misty exteriors of Hammett by Wim Wenders or the coquettish interiors of Carnage, his last film, directed by Roman Polanski in 2011. Since then, in Paris where he lives with the actress Aurore Clément, Dean Tavoularis paints canvases which he exhibits alongside the storyboards of his brother Alex, the very ones which were used studying the settings of his films.
