Sheet 9 from the 10 portfolio "Homage to the Square” - Color screeprint on wove paper - Signed, Numbered and Dated - Published by Josef Keller Verlag, Starnberg. - Printed by Herbert Geier, Ingolstadt. - Catalogue raisonné: Danilowitz, no. 203.9. // Josef Albers' Homage to the Square (1970) is a screenprint from the iconic series that explores the interplay of color and form. This particular print, measuring 21 x 21 inches, features a series of nested squares in varying shades of black and gray, creating a sense of depth and subtle contrast. The precision and simplicity of the composition highlight Albers' interest in how colors interact and the optical effects that arise from their placement. The gradation of tones invites viewers to experience shifts in perception, as the overlapping squares appear to fluctuate in size and intensity. This work exemplifies Albers' ongoing investigation into the relationships between form, color, and perception, embodying his minimalist approach and rigorous geometric exploration.

What is geometric abstract art?
Geometric abstraction is a form of abstract art that uses geometric shapes arranged in a non-illusionistic space (though not always) and combined into non-representational (non-objective) compositions. Based on years of artistic research, some artists have proposed that geometric abstraction offers a solution to modern challenges by rejecting traditional illusionistic practices in favor of clarity and simplicity.
