Curious Clown by Miklos Nemeth, signed on the bottom center and dated 1997, is an oil on cardboard piece measuring 77 x 50 cm. The work combines elements of abstract expressionism and figurative art, with stylistic influences from primitivism visible in its raw, direct portrayal. Nemeth uses a vibrant, dynamic color palette with thick, gestural brushstrokes, creating a sense of movement and intensity. The clown’s face, fragmented and layered with color, is imbued with both humor and melancholy, capturing a playful yet unsettling expression. The composition’s focus on exaggerated facial features and expressive contours suggests a commentary on the masks we wear and the emotional complexity behind them. The piece’s bold texture and distorted forms enhance its visceral impact, making it simultaneously captivating and enigmatic. This piece has an attribution mark,
