Anish Kapoor
British-Indian · b. 1954

Kapoor similarly investigates dimensional illusion and the relationship between surface and form, creating works that challenge perception of depth and flatness through precise geometric manipulation and color gradients.

Tomma Abts
German · b. 1967

Abts creates small scale acrylic paintings that use geometric abstraction and optical layering to suggest folded or twisted surfaces, sharing Auerbach's interest in making two dimensional paint behave like three dimensional structure.

Frank Stella
American · b. 1936

Stella's geometric abstract paintings explore how line, color, and repeated angular forms can create optical illusions of folding and dimensional space on flat canvas, directly paralleling the structural and perceptual concerns of this specific work.
