Robert Petrick
Post Metro, Ziggurat Series, Abstract Geometric Painting

2021

About the Item

Robert Petrick's "Post Metro" is a fusion of meticulous geometry and bold abstract expression. From the artist's Ziggurat series, this piece is both timeless and contemporary, offering a substantial visual impact that can complement modernist decor or stand as a focal point in a traditionally styled room. In this painting, Petrick employs a vivid spectrum of colors to carve out a complex network of interlocking lines and shapes. The bold lines and atmospheric whites serve as the foundation of the composition, providing a stark contrast to the deep reds, purples, greens, and soothing blues that crisscross the canvas. These vibrant colors are applied in shimmering, undulating layers, creating a labyrinthine array of geometric forms that suggest a hidden complexity within the apparent simplicity of the work. Robert Petrick's paintings connect the lyricism of language with the vibrancy of urban culture, especially the rich milieu around the East Village and Alphabet City. Rendered in colors and geometries that echo the movements that have shaped the aesthetic narratives of the 20th and 21st centuries, each series is a new verse in my ongoing poetic exploration of life, drawing inspiration from the architecture and infrastructure that frame the ever-evolving landscape of art and design. His paintings and pictograms serve as a bridge between legacies of the past and the vivid, living present. Robert W.
