Palace in Minos 1988

"Palace in Minos" (1988) is a work of geometric abstraction by Greek artist Nassos Daphnis (1914-2010). Characterized by a limited palette of primary colors and clean lines, the work suggests a built structure composed of stacked and juxtaposed planes. The composition, reminiscent of architectural plans, utilizes bold geometric shapes and flat, solid color to create a sense of depth and space within the two-dimensional format. Daphnis's work often explores the relationship between form and color in abstract terms, creating a visual language that is both playful and contemplative.
