Inhaltsangabe
In Griesgraber's hard-edge geometric paintings, he saturates hues that contest with one another for visual prominence, resulting in dynamic configurations that perpetually realign.Calling upon the variable perception of a color in relation to others, he orchestrates ever-shifting groupings and spatial readings, with any component having the capacity to advance or recede. These vibrant works are paired with thoughts on color in this one-of-a-kind book.The title "Colors Square Routes" references the format for the paintings. Starting with the canvas shape, squares and cubes are used throughout as a motif and as overt or implicit structural elements. In addition to the lines of 90° angles, Griesgraber derives diagonals and, with this restricted repertoire, achieves seemingly endless permutations, pushing patterns to the limit with the adept application of vibrant color.

Aus dem Klappentext
"Michael Griesgraber of Las Vegas, Nevada is a contemporary colorist. His acrylic paintings definitely pack a punch that is unforgettable. 'Cracked' is one of those wonderful upbeat works with the polychromatic palette with geometric abstraction formation. The near symmetrical, yet asymmetrical arrangement in 'No Direction Home' is rich in color and direction and too works very well in a square format. And 'Over vs Under', somewhat unsettling in direction, yet intriguing in concept and awesome in color tonality. Yet, with a more controlled orchestration, 'Receding Square' is quite nice in terms of the color as well as the sense of the implied three-dimensionality." Laurence Bradshaw, PhD, University of Nebraska, Upstream People Gallery Curator
