Richard Koppe

Trio
1954

A vibrant and complex abstract painting featuring a multitude of overlapping lines, shapes, and colors. Thick black lines swirl and intersect across the canvas, creating a sense of movement amidst a colorful backdrop of blues, yellows, reds, and greens. The painting's energetic composition suggests a chaotic harmony, with elements of both structure and fluidity.
