Vier Variationen um ein Quadrat 1980

"Vier Variationen um ein Quadrat" (1980) by German artist Verena Loewensberg (1912-1986) is a striking example of geometric abstraction. The work features a grid of four white squares against a light gray background, surrounded by a playful arrangement of small colored squares in black, yellow, red, blue, and turquoise. Loewensberg's exploration of color and form in this piece is characteristic of her artistic practice, where she used simple geometric shapes to create visually engaging compositions that explore the interplay of light and color. The arrangement of the squares and the dynamic use of color create a sense of movement and rhythm within the piece, challenging the viewer to appreciate the subtle nuances of geometric composition.
