Original artwork description:
Concrete Composition 21 (For Ad Reinhardt) is another example of my continuing Concrete Compositions Series. It is a homage to Ad Reinhardt (December 24, 1913 – August 30, 1967) who was an American abstract painter often associated with The New York Abstract Expressionist School, but was in fact was an early Minimalist/Monochrome artist.
His work progressed from compositions of geometrical shapes in the 1940s to works in different shades of the same color (all red, all blue, all white) in the 1950s. Reinhardt is best known for his so-called "black" paintings of the 1960s, which appear at first glance to be simply canvases painted black but are actually composed of black and nearly black shades. Among many other suggestions, these paintings ask if there can be such a thing as an absolute, even in black, which some viewers may not consider a color at all.
