Very Good Condition. Handling creases along the right edge not affecting the image. Unframed. A long time exhibitor with Leo Castelli Gallery in NYC, he is known for geometric abstractions, especially colorful, precisely crafted discs. Although Nassos Daphnis associated with the most influential painters on the American scene during his developmental years, he was never identified with a school or trend. During the 1940s and early 1950s, the Abstract Expressionists were formulating their theories of geometric abstraction. In style and approach, Daphnis's work, characteristically similar, was substantively different. Born in Krokeia, Greece, near Sparta, at age sixteen Daphnis departed for America from Athens, where for the first time he experienced the art of classical Greece and fell under the spell of the perfection and pure geometry of the Parthenon, a unique moment that would remain as a source of inspiration throughout his life. He is known for the hard-edged surfaces, orderly composition, and exploration of color. His color plane theory, though based upon exhaustive perceptual investigations, possessed strong spiritual implications as well. The complete eBay Selling Solution.
