What artistic movement does this 1973 Clarence Holbrook Carter piece represent?
This work represents a fusion of Surrealism and Geometric Abstraction. During the 1970s, Carter explored metaphysical themes through repetitive, grid-like structures, often referred to as his 'Transection' or 'Eschatos' style.
