May 13th 2011 - 169 - Trans Flux Kenneth Noland (1963) by Mr Puma x]

Today we draw inspiration from Kenneth Noland’s Trans Flux (1963). He was an abstract painter although sometimes included with abstract expressionist painters. His works explore color and shape while experimenting with thin acryllic based paints that were almost impossible to change after the paint was layed on the canvas thus him referring to his works as “one shot” paintings.

He began working with chevron or v-shaped paintings and at first covered the entire canvas with paint. As time grew on, he started to leave some parts of the canvas untouched juxtaposing painted and unpainted surfaces on the canvas.
