Color Shapes 1975

"Color Shapes," created in 1975 by American abstract painter Robert Goodnough (1917-2010), is a minimalist work characterized by its use of simple geometric shapes and a limited color palette. The painting consists primarily of a cluster of small, brightly colored triangles scattered across a large, off-white canvas, creating a sense of visual energy and movement. The work exemplifies Goodnough's fascination with the interplay of color and form, which he explored throughout his career. This piece is an excellent example of minimalist art, known for its focus on essential elements and its rejection of representational imagery.
