Original artwork description:

Igor Galan’s Cabaret (2005) is an electrifying oil painting that bursts with life, humor, and high-octane femininity. This 190 cm-wide canvas focuses on a singular expression: a woman mid-laugh, drenched in artificial light, her mouth wide open, teeth bright, and features infused with movement. The setting, while not explicitly detailed, suggests the backstage energy of a cabaret or burlesque club – and the title leaves little doubt.

Rendered in warm tones of crimson, orange, pink, and champagne, Galan’s brushwork is confident, emotional, and slightly unrestrained. The figure is not about anatomical perfection, but about feeling – unfiltered, ecstatic, present.

While this piece is already in a private collection, Galan welcomes commissions for similar emotionally charged, performative portraiture. Cabaret is perfect for collectors drawn to expressive realism, oversized figurative works, and paintings that command attention and speak of joy, spectacle, and identity.
