Francois Morellet made this with simple shapes and colors, exploring how repetition and geometry can create something pretty wild. I imagine Morellet, probably with a straight face, carefully plotting those lines and dots, almost like a mathematician doodling in their notebook. It’s kind of mesmerizing, right? How these basic elements come together to form something that feels both rigid and kind of… organic? The texture isn't thick or anything, but the density gives it this vibrant, almost pulsating quality. Looking at each little square, there's a system at play. A dance, even. I think of Sol LeWitt and his wall drawings and how artists are always in dialogue with each other, riffing on ideas, pushing boundaries. It reminds us that painting isn't just about what you see, but about how you see and how that vision is expressed in the world.
