Untitled
1970
This abstract composition features a dynamic field of gestural marks executed in contrasting red and white pigments against a deep blue ground. The artist has employed a rhythmic, all over approach to the canvas surface, creating a sense of visual movement and energy through the repetition of angular, lightning like forms. The work exemplifies the colorfield and gestural abstraction movements of the late 1960s and early 1970s, inviting the viewer to experience pure color relationships and mark making as subjects in themselves.
