The 1970’s HARD-Edge & beyond

George is perhaps most renowned for his signature hard-edge works, which stand as brilliant examples of this influential art movement that emerged in the 1960s. These alluring, multi-paneled canvases are masterpieces of the Hard-Edge movement, a style that marries the precise, structured compositions of geometric abstraction with the vivid, emotionally charged forms of Color Field Painting. In these works, George employs sharp, unyielding lines and striking contrasts of color to create dynamic visual experiences that captivate and engage the viewer. Each piece reflects a balance between bold, intense forms an d serene, contemplative spaces, embodying the innovative spirit of Hard-Edge painting.
