Who was François Morellet and why is '32 Rectangles' significant?
François Morellet was a pioneer of Concrete Art. '32 Rectangles' (1953) is significant for its systematic use of mathematical rules to determine composition, a precursor to Minimalism and Conceptual art.
What was the 'systematic' approach used in this 1953 work?
Morellet used pre-established systems or grids to arrange shapes, aiming to remove the artist's ego from the work. This objective methodology creates a rhythmic, balanced aesthetic based on logic rather than intuition.
