Artist
Painting
Michael Kidner was a British abstract artist who developed a distinctive geometric practice rooted in mathematical systems and optical perception. Working primarily in acrylic and mixed media from the 1960s onward, he created rigorously structured compositions that explored color relationships and spatial illusion through grids, nested forms, and calculated progressions. His work engaged with the formal principles of constructivism and systems art, positioning abstraction as a means of investigating visual logic rather than emotional expression.
