Robert Mangold (b. 1937) Untitled, 1990 Mixed media on paper 30 x 22 inches (76.2 x 55.9 cm) (sheet) Initialed and dated lower left: R. M. 1990 PROVENANCE: Private collection, New York. In his 1990 works on paper, Robert Mangold employs subtle, earthy colors and refined, geometric forms to explore the tension between precision and imperfection. The soft palette serves to heighten the meditative quality of his compositions. Mangold’s use of hand-drawn lines within measured shapes, such as circles, ellipses, and segments, introduces a human element that contrasts with the architectural structure of the forms. This interplay between color and shape underscores his continued investigation into the nature of abstraction, inviting viewers to contemplate space and balance.
