The artwork, titled “Blue and White,” was created by Ellsworth Kelly in 1951. This piece belongs to the Hard Edge Painting movement and falls under the abstract genre.
The artwork features a minimalist composition, showcasing four irregular blue shapes set against a white background. The shapes are arranged in a vertical orientation, forming a loose and asymmetrical grid pattern. The clear delineation between the blue forms and the white backdrop exemplifies the Hard Edge style, marked by precise transitions of color and shape. The simplicity and clarity of design convey a strong visual impact, aligning with Ellsworth Kelly’s approach to abstraction and modernist principles.
