Green Squares - Joseph Schillinger

A vibrant geometric composition from Joseph Schillinger's 'The Mathematical Basis of the Arts' series, circa 1934. This artwork showcases the harmonious interplay of colour and form derived from mathematical principles, perfect for adding a touch of mid-century modernism to any interior.

This vibrant geometric composition, 'Green Squares', is part of Joseph Schillinger's series 'The Mathematical Basis of the Arts', circa 1934. Schillinger, a Ukrainian-American composer, music theorist, and artist, developed a comprehensive system for artistic creation based on mathematical principles. This artwork exemplifies his theories, showcasing the harmonious interplay of colour and form derived from mathematical relationships. The painting features a grid-like structure with alternating squares of deep blue and soft grey, each containing a combination of overlapping circles and geometric shapes in shades of yellow, teal, and white. The overlapping creates a sense of depth and visual complexity, while the carefully chosen colour palette evokes a sense of balance and harmony. As a fine art print, 'Green Squares' brings a touch of mid-century modernism to any interior. Its bold colours and geometric design make it a striking focal point for a living room, study, or hallway, adding a sophisticated and intellectual flair to your home decor. The artwork's mathematical underpinnings also make it a conversation starter, inviting viewers to explore the intersection of art and science.
