The artwork titled “M-yellow,” created by Ray Parker in 1965, is a notable piece in the Lyrical Abstraction movement and belongs to the abstract genre.
In the artwork, a vibrant yellow background serves as the canvas for a collection of asymmetrical shapes and forms. The shapes, rendered in various colors including red, blue, green, lavender, brown, and black, are characterized by their organic and fluid contours. These elements float independently within the frame, generating a sense of spontaneity and dynamism. The simplicity and boldness of the color palette and form exemplify the Lyrical Abstraction movement’s emphasis on expressive and emotive compositions.
