What was Robert Mangold's artistic philosophy in the late 1970s?
Mangold focused on the relationship between the internal line and the external shape. In 1978, his "distorted" rectangles were used to challenge the rigid boundaries of traditional painting, creating a dialogue between the eye and architectural space.
Why does Mangold use 'distorted' rectangles instead of perfect ones?
By distorting the rectangular form, Mangold emphasizes the "objecthood" of the painting. This technique creates a dynamic tension with the curved line, forcing the viewer to engage with the work as a physical structure rather than just an image.
