Monochrome Painting: A Posteriori Prototype: Average Size 1994

Stephen Prina's 1994 work, "Monochrome Painting: A Posteriori Prototype: Average Size," is a minimalist installation consisting of three identical green canvases displayed on a gallery wall. The canvases' simple, uniform color and size contrast with a wooden platform covered in black padding in the foreground, creating a dialogue between the formal qualities of the artwork and the space in which it is displayed. This piece is characteristic of Prina’s practice, which often challenges traditional notions of artistic production and representation.
