Square with Diagonals 1967

"Square with Diagonals" (1967) is a minimalist artwork by Johannes Jan Schoonhoven, a Dutch artist known for his contributions to Concrete art. This piece consists of a white square panel with a repeating pattern of cut-out triangles, creating a grid of overlapping shapes. The work explores the interplay of positive and negative space, with the white background and the cut-out shapes creating a visual tension. This piece exemplifies Schoonhoven's interest in exploring the fundamental elements of geometry and the use of repetition as a means of creating a sense of structure and order.
