This original Mid-Century Modern (MCM) is a vintage painting by Architect Michael Engstrom. The abstract composition is characterized by organic, flowing shapes and bold color contrasts. The central forms are large, curving, suggesting almost skeletal shapes in white and cream tones, outlined in black, which gives them a sense of movement and depth. These forms dominate the canvas, creating an engaging visual rhythm that suggests figures or structures, though their abstraction leaves room for interpretation.
Framed in an original aluminum, sleek frame, this piece reflects the MCM era’s emphasis on modern, abstract aesthetics. Its subdued yet bold color palette and free-form shapes would make it an excellent statement piece in a modern or minimalist setting.
This piece has had a single owner, and it comes with original purchase receipt dated 1969, and a brief Michael Engstrom biography.
