"Accent on Orange" (1968) is a minimalist painting by Swiss artist Richard Paul Lohse. This work exemplifies Lohse's exploration of geometric abstraction, using a stark contrast between vivid orange and turquoise, separated by a thin blue line. The composition's simplicity and bold color choices create a dynamic visual tension, typical of Lohse's abstract style, which aimed to convey pure color and form, devoid of representational elements.
