Josef Albers' "Homage to the Square. Apparition" (1959) is a prime example of his signature style of abstract geometric art. The artwork, now housed at the Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, features a series of squares nested within one another, creating an illusion of depth and movement through contrasting colors. Albers' work is known for its exploration of color relationships, and this piece exemplifies how the same hue can appear different depending on its surrounding context. His work challenged viewers to perceive color in a new way and remains a prominent figure in the history of 20th-century art.
