{"product_id":"garden-in-sochi-arshile-gorky","title":"Garden in Sochi - Arshile Gorky","description":"\u003cp\u003eA seminal work by Arshile Gorky, this painting uses biomorphic forms and a muted palette to evoke personal memories of the Armenian countryside.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eArshile Gorky created several versions of Garden in Sochi during the early 1940s. This series draws upon his childhood memories of the Armenian countryside, specifically the 'Garden of Wish Fulfillment' near his home in Van. Rather than a direct depiction of a physical space, the work functions as a collection of personal symbols and biomorphic shapes that evoke the atmosphere of his past.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe composition features a muted, olive-green ground that acts as a unified field for the floating, organic forms. Gorky employs a palette of black, white, yellow, and blue to define these shapes, which suggest abstracted botanical elements, anatomical fragments, or ritualistic objects. The application of paint is deliberate, with clear outlines separating the forms from the background, creating a sense of suspension. The work bridges the gap between the European Surrealist interest in the subconscious and the emerging American style of gestural abstraction.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBy distilling his recollections into these semi-abstract signs, Gorky explores the intersection of memory and identity. The forms do not resolve into a coherent scene, but instead invite the viewer to engage with the rhythm of the lines and the balance of the colour blocks. The painting reflects his technical skill in balancing controlled graphic elements with a more fluid, painterly approach to the surface. It remains a significant example of his transition toward the mature style that would define his later career.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"margin-top:2rem;padding-top:1.5rem;border-top:1px solid #e5e5e5;\"\u003e\n\u003cp style=\"font-size:0.85rem;color:#888;font-weight:600;margin:0 0 0.75rem;text-transform:uppercase;letter-spacing:0.05em;\"\u003eYou might also like\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv style=\"display:flex;flex-wrap:wrap;gap:0.5rem;\"\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/nl\/products\/fantasy-mark-rothko-1\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eFantasy by Mark Rothko\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/nl\/products\/redness-of-blue-roberto-matta\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#f8f9fa;border:1px solid #e5e5e5;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#2a555a;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eRedness of Blue by Roberto Matta\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003ca href=\"\/nl\/collections\/arshile-gorky\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#2a555a;border:1px solid #2a555a;border-radius:20px;padding:0.35rem 0.85rem;font-size:0.8rem;color:#ffffff;font-weight:500;text-decoration:none !important;background-image:none !important;\"\u003eArshile Gorky prints →\u003c\/a\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Arshile Gorky","offers":[{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ -","offer_id":59460240015695,"sku":null,"price":28.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59460261511503,"sku":null,"price":35.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Poster \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ -","offer_id":59460261544271,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59460261577039,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59460261609807,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A4 (21x29.7 cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59460261642575,"sku":null,"price":45.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59460261675343,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59460261708111,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A3 (29.7 x 42  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59460261740879,"sku":null,"price":60.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Black frame","offer_id":59460261773647,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Wood frame","offer_id":59460261806415,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true},{"title":"Fine Art Framed \/ A2 (42 x 59.4  cm) \/ Dark wood frame","offer_id":59460261839183,"sku":null,"price":90.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0833\/9292\/1935\/files\/Garden-in-Sochi_Poster_CompositorV1_1792305315153.jpg?v=1794350840","url":"https:\/\/www.solisprints.co.uk\/nl\/products\/garden-in-sochi-arshile-gorky","provider":"Solis Prints","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
