“Window Study #3” by Brice Marden, created in 1985, belongs to the Color Field Painting and Minimalism movements and is classified within the abstract genre.
The artwork is characterized by a structured composition of horizontal bands arranged in a grid-like pattern. Each band features distinct color fields predominantly in hues of red, yellow, blue, and gray. The colors are applied with visible brushstrokes and have areas where the pigments appear to have dripped, adding a dynamic texture to the composition. The borders between the bands are blurred and uneven, contributing to a subtle interplay between precision and spontaneity. The overall effect is both harmonious and visually striking, embodying the minimalist aesthetic while inviting deeper contemplation through its abstract form.
