The artwork, titled “Fracture,” was created by Larry Bell in 2002. It belongs to the genre of abstract art and is associated with the Post-Painterly Abstraction movement.
“Fracture” features a visually compelling composition centering on a vibrant yellow shape that appears to be embedded within a dark, painterly square. Surrounding the central square are various colors and textures, including hints of blue, black, and orange, creating a sense of depth and complexity. The brushstrokes and color placements are dynamic, giving the piece a fractured yet harmonious aesthetic. The artwork’s minimalistic background accentuates the central focal point, drawing the viewer’s attention to the interplay of colors and forms. Through its abstract form, “Fracture” invites contemplation on the relationships of color and structure, characteristic of the Post-Painterly Abstraction movement.
