Printmaking
Walter Darby Bannard was an American abstract painter and theorist working primarily in acrylic on canvas. His geometric compositions from the 1960s onward employed bold color relationships and hard-edge forms that engaged with the legacy of color field painting and minimalism. A vocal critic and advocate for abstract art, Bannard wrote extensively on aesthetic theory and the formal properties of modernist painting. His work was grounded in a rigorous investigation of color interaction and spatial illusion without representational reference.
