The artwork titled “Checker” was created by Sean Scully in 1994 and is associated with the Neo-Minimalism art movement. The genre of this artwork is abstract.
In “Checker,” the artist employs a grid-like structure composed of alternating black and white squares. The composition is reminiscent of a checkerboard, with careful attention to the balance and repetition of forms. The neutrality of the color palette accentuates the geometric simplicity, while the slight imperfections and variations in the lines add a subtle, organic quality to the work. This juxtaposition exemplifies the Neo-Minimalist approach, merging strict minimalism with a human touch. The clear, structured design invites the viewer to contemplate the interplay of form, color, and space within the confines of abstraction.
