Gene Davis's *Swimming Pool* is a vibrant acrylic on canvas that showcases his signature hard-edge style of vertical color stripes, each band of hue carefully arranged to create a rhythmic, almost musical composition. The title evokes a sense of cool, shimmering light and fluid movement, suggested through Davis's deliberate sequencing of colors across the canvas. As a leading figure of the Washington Color School, Davis transforms the simplicity of stripes into a dynamic exploration of color relationships and optical sensation.
