"Ice Box (P506)" is a 1969 painting by American artist Gene Davis (1920-1985). This minimalist work showcases Davis' signature style, characterized by bold, vertical stripes in muted hues. The repetition and simplicity of the stripes create a sense of rhythm and visual harmony, inviting viewers to contemplate the interplay of color and form. Davis's "Ice Box" series, including this painting, is known for its exploration of abstract expressionism and the use of color as a primary element.
