The artwork entitled “Blue-Chip Blue #1” was created by the artist Perle Fine in 1974. This piece belongs to the Color Field Painting movement and falls within the abstract genre.
The artwork features an expansive, uniform field of vibrant blue, creating a profound sense of depth and tranquility. Subtle variations in the hue and texture are present throughout the canvas, distinguishing the individual abstract forms that seem to float upon the surface. These forms exhibit soft, organic curves and edges, gently contrasting against the backdrop, allowing them to emerge and recede in an almost sculptural manner. The overall composition exudes a meditative quality, characteristic of Color Field Painting, inviting the viewer to contemplate the interplay of color and shape.
