Maze 4
2013
A striking geometric abstract composition featuring bold black rectilinear forms against white, punctuated by a vibrant blue square at center and a small orange rectangle to the left. The maze-like pattern creates dynamic visual pathways through interlocking rectangular shapes. The heavily textured surface shows evidence of thick paint application, characteristic of Langford's architectural approach to abstraction.

Artists in conversation
Pat Steir
American · b. 1940
Steir works with layered oil paint and gestural mark making on large canvases, building atmospheric surfaces through warm and luminous color fields that similarly blur the boundary between abstraction and landscape evocation with a contemplative, panoramic quality.
Albert Oehlen
German · b. 1954
Oehlen combines aggressive gestural marks with carefully constructed layered surfaces in oil and mixed media, producing compositions with a similar cartographic complexity and psychological tension between concealed and revealed imagery across expansive canvases.
Terry Winters
American · b. 1949
Winters builds richly layered oil paintings with warm atmospheric palettes and map like structural forms that share Langford's interest in memory and identity encoded through abstract systems, gestural mark making, and surfaces that reward prolonged contemplative viewing.
