// Between Green by Günter Fruhtrunk is a 1970 screen-print that exemplifies the artist’s bold approach to geometric abstraction and Op Art. The composition features alternating vertical stripes of vibrant red, green, and black, arranged in varying widths. The contrast between the intense colors and the stark black background creates a rhythmic visual impact, drawing the viewer’s eye along the lines and generating a sense of movement. Fruhtrunk’s work often explores the interaction of color and form to produce optical effects, and this piece is no exception, with the repetition and color contrast giving it an almost pulsating quality. The print invites viewers to experience color as a dynamic force, embodying the principles of kinetic art.

What is concrete art?
Concrete Art is an art movement founded by the Dutch artist Theo van Doesburg in the 1930s. The movement emphasizes pure abstraction, focusing on geometric shapes and colors without any reference to the natural world or symbolic meaning. Unlike other forms of abstract art, Concrete Art is entirely non-representational and is based on mathematical principles and precise execution. It aims to create universal, timeless works by using simple, clear forms that emphasize objectivity and clarity.
