Oil on canvas board - Signed and dated to verso ‘Larry Zox February 20- March 11, 1965’ Yellow Abstract by Larry Zox is an oil on canvas board characterized by crisp geometry and high-key color. Broad fields of saturated yellow dominate the composition, intersected by angled white lines and narrow bands of cool green that cut across the surface. The shapes appear to tilt and overlap, creating a sense of spatial tension and movement within a shallow pictorial plane. Painted in 1965, the work reflects Zox’s engagement with Color Field and Post-Painterly Abstraction, where hard edges and luminous color replace expressive brushwork. The modest scale intensifies the precision of the composition, inviting close viewing of the relationships between color, line, and balance. Signed and dated on the reverse, the painting exemplifies Zox’s disciplined yet dynamic approach to abstraction during this period.

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.
