About the Item

This modern geometric painting by Burton Kramer was inspired by music. Lauded as a pioneer of Canadian graphic design whose work has been recognized worldwide, the artwork of Burton Kramer is just as masterful. A modernist whose preferred form is often geometric in shape, his palette of choice is a kaleidoscope of vivid colour, This piece literally radiates the power of colour to convey an inspired narrative as bars of royal blue, red, orange, hot pink and yellow against a bright green backdrop flow like piano keys across the canvas. The visual movement is palpable. “To be a Modernist is to not rely on the solutions and stylistic quirkiness of the past, but to become part of creating an idiom of today and tomorrow.” Burton Kramer Burton Kramer was born in New York City in 1932. He is renowned for designing the Canadian Broadcasting Corporation logo in 1974. Kramer trained at Yale University (MFA), The Institute of Design at the Illinois Institute of Technology (BSc), The Royal College of Art, London (Fulbright Scholar) and The State University of New York. Kramer has received a Lifetime Achievement Award from Arts Ontario, The Order of Ontario by the Province, an Honorary Doctorate from Ontario College of Art & Design and was named a Member of the Order of Canada. His work has been exhibited in galleries internationally and is held in many private and public collections.
