The 'Lyrical Abstraction' series immediately evokes thoughts of the 'Lyric Abstraction' movement in Paris during the 1950s, engaging in a dynamic artistic discourse with New York's 'Abstract Expressionism,' despite the geographical separation of the Atlantic Ocean. Nevertheless, Rubenstein's 'Lyrical Abstraction' exhibits a noteworthy departure from the work of the acknowledged pioneer of 'Lyric Abstraction,' Georges Mathieu. Rubenstein discerningly embraces stylistic elements that challenge the confines of 'Geometric Abstraction,' infusing his creations with a profusion of richly saturated colors and intricate, recurrent rotational textures. This results in the formation of a highly concentrated, entirely new abstract narrative. The colors, lines, and textures in this series surge across the canvas, emphasizing the artist's adept equilibrium between spontaneity and disorder, as well as between figurative and abstract components.
