About company

David Guez (born 1954, Tunisia) is a self-taught painter based in Jerusalem whose work has emerged as a distinctive voice in contemporary abstraction. After formative periods in Paris and Los Angeles, Guez developed a universal visual language articulated through layered color, rhythm, and gesture. His abstract paintings pursue questions of presence, silence, and memory, offering a vocabulary that transcends geographical and cultural boundaries. Guez’s practice centers on large-scale oil works whose materiality and monumentality echo the logic of sculpture. Through erasure, repetition, and improvisatory brushwork, he creates surfaces that feel both immediate and timeless, as if light and duration have been made visible. His marks often resemble a form of visual pulse, intuitive, coded, and quietly insistent, inviting contemplative looking in a screen-saturated era.
