“Lawson Set (Green tied in 3 sections)” is an abstract artwork created by Richard Smith in 1973, falling under the Post-Minimalism art movement. In this piece, Smith employs abstract techniques to convey a unique visual expression that is characterized by simplicity and restraint.
The artwork consists of a vivid green band positioned vertically and tied with three sections of string, creating points of intersection and tension. Surrounding this green element is a diffuse array of yellow hues that meander around the central form, providing a subtle yet dynamic backdrop. The composition utilizes minimal, yet striking, color contrasts and forms, encapsulating the essence of Post-Minimalism through its emphasis on structure, minimalistic design, and spatial relationships.
