Drawing
Fritz Glarner was an American painter and sculptor known for abstract geometric compositions built from interlocking rectangular forms and a restrained palette of primary colors and neutrals. Working primarily in the mid-twentieth century, he developed a systematic approach to composition that emphasized the relationship between color, line, and spatial division. His paintings and relief sculptures reflect an engagement with constructivism and the formal languages of modernism.
