On a recent trip to Washington D.C. I spent some time with this fantastic Ellsworth Kelly painting. It comprises three trapezoidal monochrome panels which conjoin to produce the illusion of a rectangular triptych seen in perspective. Like the best of Kelly’s work it is at once erudite and playful, and it reorients us to painting’s past even as it opens up new possibilities for painting’s future.
