Sarah Morris made this "Metro Center [Capital]" painting, and you know, it’s all about hard lines and cool colors. It's like she's trying to trap light in a geometric cage. The way she uses these flat planes of color, it reminds me of graphic design, but with a painter's touch. Look at that grid—so precise, yet the colors inside those lines are far from perfect. I think that slight imperfection is where the magic happens. It's like she's setting up a system, and then letting it breathe a little. The way the colors interact creates this subtle vibration, like Op Art, but something more. Does anyone else think of Sol Lewitt or Bridget Riley? But it's not just about optical illusion; it's about the feeling of space and movement, kind of like the best abstract painting always is!
