Red Yellow Blue 1974

"Red Yellow Blue" is a minimalist painting by Brice Marden, created in 1974. The painting features three vertical stripes of color: a dark purple on the left, a bright yellow in the middle, and a deep blue on the right. This work is characteristic of Marden's style, which often explores the interplay of color and form in simple, geometric compositions. The vivid hues and stark contrast of the stripes create a strong visual impact, inviting contemplation of the nature of color and its ability to evoke emotion. Marden's minimal abstract paintings have made him a leading figure in the art world.
