Color-Field Space Cube Diagram 1940

Editor: Here we have Stuart Davis’s "Color-Field Space Cube Diagram." There’s no date attached, but it feels like a little color experiment. What do you make of it? Curator: It's Davis letting us peek behind the curtain, isn't it? A moment of pure artistic thought, almost a playful deconstruction. I see him wrestling with space and color, like a jazz musician riffing on a theme. What colors speak to you most? Editor: Definitely the violet. It’s a surprising anchor in this geometric exploration. So this diagram really shows his process? Curator: Precisely! It’s Davis thinking aloud. A bit like reading an artist's diary, full of starts, stops, and unexpected connections. It’s this vulnerability that makes it sing, don't you think? Editor: Absolutely. It makes it feel less like a diagram and more like a dance. Curator: A dance of color and space. Beautifully put!
