Corridor 1960

"Corridor" (1960) by Karl Benjamin is a prime example of hard-edge painting. The piece is composed of geometric shapes in bold, flat colors, creating a sense of depth and spatial ambiguity. Benjamin's use of contrasting colors, such as red, green, and blue, draws the viewer's eye and emphasizes the sharp edges of the composition. The title, "Corridor," alludes to the way the shapes seem to create a path or passageway, suggesting a visual experience that is both physical and abstract. The artwork's focus on form, color, and composition places it firmly within the realm of Minimalist and geometric abstraction.
