Intervention 15 1975

Edward Krasinski created this 'Intervention 15' with paint, and adhesive tape applied directly to the wall. Here, simple geometric forms are used to disrupt our perception of space. The strong contrast between the black and white sections draws your eye to the centre of the composition. Krasinski introduces a playful element with a horizontal line of blue tape that extends beyond the confines of the central painted form. This challenges traditional artistic boundaries, merging the artwork with its environment. Krasinski's use of simple materials and bold lines creates a dynamic interplay between the artwork and its architectural surroundings. The horizontal blue line suggests movement and continuity. This invites us to question the conventional separation between art and life. His interventions prompt us to reconsider the role of art, and the gallery space itself.
