Inspired by the sunlight flashing through the trees on a road trip in France, New York based Belgian painter Harold Ancart embarked on a series of paintings now attracting attention at David Zwirner Gallery in Chelsea. This fiery abstracted mass brings to mind not just autumn foliage but a giant flaming match or burning bush. Tranquil blue sky behind the tree sets off the intense energy of this living organism. (On view through Oct 17th. Masks and social distancing required and appointments recommended).
