Yukawa

1983

This 1983 screen print presents a striking geometric composition featuring a large gradient circle that transitions from deep red at the top through pink and orange to bright yellow at the bottom. The circle is divided by a horizontal line, creating two distinct visual zones within a bold red rectangular field set against a black background. The work demonstrates masterful use of color gradation and minimalist form, characteristic of post war abstraction and light based art movements. A small dark void or opening on the left side of the upper circle adds subtle intrigue to the otherwise meditative composition.
