Cylinders 1944

Karl Knaths' "Cylinders," painted in 1944, is a prime example of Abstract art. The composition features geometric shapes, particularly cylinders, arranged in a dynamic and colorful manner against a dark background. The artist uses a grid to structure the arrangement, emphasizing the formal qualities of the forms and their interplay. Knaths, known for his focus on color and form, created a visually arresting piece that embodies the principles of geometric abstraction.
