The artwork, titled “Fez 2,” was created by Frank Stella in 1964. Falling under the Art Movement of Color Field Painting and classified within the genre of abstract art, “Fez 2” is a distinguished piece from this era.
The artwork features an intricate pattern of diagonal stripes that converge to form a dynamic geometric composition. Utilizing a palette primarily of vibrant green and bold orange, the arrangement of the stripes creates an optical illusion of depth and movement. The symmetry and precision in the placement of the colors and lines reflect the minimalist and meticulous approach distinctive of Frank Stella’s work. The intersecting lines form a series of layered chevrons, culminating in a central focal point that draws the viewer’s eye inward, creating a sense of balance and cohesion across the visual field.
