"Cool" Series (Dark Pink over Brown) 1963

This abstract painting, “Cool” Series (Dark Pink over Brown), was created in 1963 by American artist Perle Fine. Fine, known for her hard-edged geometric abstract work, uses a limited palette of dark brown and dark pink to create a dynamic visual experience. The bold red rectangles divide the brown space, while the uneven brushstrokes and subtle variation of hues in the brown creates depth and texture, pushing the boundaries of the minimalist aesthetic.
