Center for the Arts exhibition: Evolving Geometries: Line, Form, and Color
(Arts)
Building on the rich tradition of geometric abstraction, three one-person exhibitions take the visual language of line, form, and color in compelling directions. In the first part of the 20th century, artists such as Wassily Kandinksky (1866-1944), Kasimir Malevich (1878-1935), and Piet Mondrian (1872-1944) explored a vocabulary of simple geometric forms - rectangles, triangles, squares, and line - in abstract compositions that addressed universal truths and utopian ideas. This tradition, carried forth, expanded, and transformed over the course of the 20th century, continues into the present with innovative approaches to the genre by Patrick Wilson, Odili Donald Odita, and Manfred Mohr.
