Offset by Camilo Requejo

This original acrylic on canvas painting titled 'Offset' is a contemporary geometric abstract work by the listed artist Camilo Requejo (born 1976). The square composition measures 21 inches by 21 inches within its white floater frame. The artwork features a series of concentric, nested squares and rectangular bands that create a sophisticated illusion of three-dimensional depth and recession. The color palette is vibrant and varied, transitioning through primary and secondary hues including bold red, cobalt blue, forest green, bright yellow, and various shades of lilac, teal, and slate grey. Each geometric segment is meticulously executed with clean lines and flat color application, characteristic of the Hard-Edge painting style. The artist's signature is clearly visible in the lower right corner, executed in a fluid, white script. The canvas appears to be in excellent contemporary condition, with tight tension and no visible signs of craquelure, fading, or surface abrasions. The high-quality craftsmanship is evidenced by the precision of the mitred corners of the nested shapes and the even saturation of the acrylic pigment. The piece is presented in a minimalist, modern white floater frame that enhances the optical 'offset' effect of the central composition.

I have virtually examined 'Offset' by Camilo Requejo (b. 1976). This 21x21 inch acrylic on canvas is a stellar example of the artist's Hard-Edge geometric abstraction. The visual examination reveals meticulous execution, with clean lines and vibrant pigment saturation across a complex palette. The condition appears excellent, with no evidence of surface degradation, fading, or structural issues. The contemporary white floater frame is professionally fitted and complements the work's optical depth. Requejo’s market is currently characterized by a steady demand for mid-sized geometric abstracts that appeal to modern residential and corporate collectors. Comparable sales for Requejo’s smaller to mid-sized square formats typically range from $1,200 to $2,500 depending on the complexity of the composition and exhibition history. 'Offset' benefits from a highly sophisticated color theory application and a well-preserved signature. However, digital images alone cannot definitively confirm the canvas substrate's age or the chemical composition of the acrylics. A full authentication would require an in-person physical inspection to verify the texture of the brushwork and the existence of a gallery label or provenance documentation on the verso. For insurance purposes, I would value this piece toward the higher end of the range, while's its fair market value remains anchored by current gallery availability of similar works. This piece remains a desirable acquisition for collectors of contemporary abstraction due to its precision and visual impact.
