Esteban Vicente was best known for his rigorously structured abstract compositions executed in evocative colors. As a young painter, Vicente honed his skills in Madrid, Paris, and New York, creating portraits, landscapes, and still lifes, but in 1941, he stopped exhibiting for nearly a decade to educate himself and develop a more modern, impactful style. For the next fifty years, Vicente experimented with color, texture, and form, but never deviated from abstraction.
