Two organic forms emerge across an expansive field of warm ivory, connected by expressive gestures, delicate graphite lines, and richly textured passages of deep green and black. The composition unfolds gradually, balancing energy with restraint and inviting the viewer into a moment of reflection.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eBuilt through successive layers of painting, drawing, erasure, and revision, the surface retains the history of its making. Thick impasto contrasts with whisper-soft pencil lines and translucent washes, creating a dynamic interplay between movement and stillness, density and openness. The nuanced palette of moss, olive, forest, and celadon greens lends the painting a timeless quality while allowing its expressive mark-making to take center stage.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eLike much of Gentinetta's work, Intermezzo in Green suggests landscape without depicting one and evokes emotion without narrative. Its architectural composition, sophisticated palette, and museum-scale presence allow it to serve as a striking focal point while maintaining a quiet elegance suited to contemporary, minimalist, and traditional interiors.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAbout the Artist | \u003c\/strong\u003eKarina Gentinetta’s path to becoming a celebrated abstract artist was anything but linear. Born in Buenos Aires and raised in New Orleans, she earned honors degrees from Tulane University and Tulane Law School before spending 13 years as a corporate litigator. In 2005, Hurricane Katrina destroyed her home, prompting a profound shift toward rebuilding through art. What began as a design business soon evolved into painting, after she was encouraged to create large-scale works for her showroom. Her first canvas sold for ten times her expectations. Influenced by Cy Twombly and Franz Kline, her early black-and-white works—often made with house paint, plaster, and varnish—reflected both personal and urban transformation. Over time, her practice expanded to include color, gestural marks, scribbles, and mathematical motifs, expressing spontaneity, discipline, vulnerability, and resilience. Working with unconventional, construction-inspired materials, Gentinetta creates paintings that function as visual diaries—intimate, textured, and rigorously composed. Her work balances the analytical mind of a former attorney with the freedom of an abstract artist, moving between bold intensity and quiet reflection. Her paintings are held in private collections worldwide. She collaborated with RH Modern on a sold-out limited edition in 2016 and was later commissioned to create a permanent collection for RH Paris on the Champs-Élysées. Her work has been featured in \u003cem\u003eArchitectural Digest\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eElle Décor\u003c\/em\u003e, \u003cem\u003eThe New York Times\u003c\/em\u003e, and other leading publications. Rooted in both Argentine passion and New Orleanian resilience, her practice continues to honor fragility, strength, and transformation.\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"details_content description_text flexbox\"\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"condition\"\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eDetails\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003ch6 class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eArtist\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"iw gFxsud\"\u003e\u003cspan role=\"gridcell\" class=\"qu yKyxu\" translate=\"no\" tabindex=\"-1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"gD\" name=\"Karina Gentinetta\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eKarina Gentinetta\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6 class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eDimensions\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003e84 H x 60 W\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6 class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eMaterial\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAcrylic, charcoal, graphite, and oil pastel on canvas.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch6 class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cstrong\u003e\u003cspan class=\"s1\"\u003eCondition\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h6\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cspan class=\"line-check scroll-trigger-fade-in\"\u003eNew, original work of art\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cspan class=\"line-check scroll-trigger-fade-in\"\u003e.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eShipping \u0026amp; Delivery\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp class=\"p1\"\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003e\u003cspan\u003ePlease email \u003cspan style=\"text-decoration: underline;\"\u003ehello@forsythart.com\u003c\/span\u003e to request a shipping quote.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Karina Gentinetta","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":53279610437941,"sku":null,"price":28000.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0695\/9665\/files\/IMG_4919.jpg?v=1786641813","url":"https:\/\/www.forsythart.com\/products\/intermezzo-in-green","provider":"FORSYTH","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
