The artwork titled “Red Blue Green” by Ellsworth Kelly, created in 1963, is an abstract representation associated with the Hard Edge Painting movement. This piece is part of the collection at the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego (MCASD) in San Diego, California, United States.
In the artwork, three distinct colors—red, blue, and green—are presented in sharply defined geometric shapes. A bold red square occupies the left section of the piece, juxtaposed against a green rectangular background that transitions into a blue shape on the right, which features a semi-oval border. The use of these vibrant colors and precise lines exemplifies Kelly’s minimalist approach and mastery in creating visual cohesion and intensity through simplicity.
