Dark Orange - Poster

This poster was inspired by Osvaldo Mariscotti's Dark Orange painting (New York, USA, June 2009). Printed on high quality photo paper, this semi-gloss poster has a soft shine finish which reduces glare.

As we progress in time we reach the Late stage of the Color Abstraction Period (2004-09). We immediately notice the change in the role of the background. Now, the background sets the mood of the work, a mood which is set and unchanging. The grid in this case is defined as the absence of color, natural breaks present between transitions of the black figures. Given the increased role of the background, we observe less color 'complements' to the black shapes, with the introduction of light shadows which define the concept of motion.
