Ludwig Sander
1906–1975
Introduction
Ludwig Sander (July 18, 1906 – July 3, 1975) was an American painter and printmaker associated with the New York School of abstract art. Renowned for his austere geometric abstractions that blended elements of color field painting with precise hard-edge techniques, Sander's work emphasized flat planes of complementary colors divided by horizontal and vertical lines, creating a contemplative and lyrical visual experience. His contributions bridged early 20th-century modernism and postwar American abstraction, influencing perceptions of geometric form in mid-century art.
