Geometric Art:  4 Notable Artists

1. Kazimir Malevich

Malevich was a pivotal player in the formation of the Russian avant-garde and a pioneer of geometric abstraction. “Black Square,” his well-known painting, embodies his dedication to distilling art to its most basic geometric components.

2. Piet Mondrian

One of the first members of the De Stijl movement was the Dutch artist Mondrian. His use of primary colours and the grid-like arrangement of geometric objects are characteristics of his work. “Composition with Red, Blue, and Yellow,” his most famous work, perfectly captures the ideas of neoplasticism.

3. Bridget Riley

Riley, a well-known member of the Op art movement, specialised in optical illusions and the interplay of geometric patterns in her artwork. Her monochromatic works, such as “Movement in Squares” and “Blaze,” provide the impression of depth and motion.

4. Frank Stella

Stella is renowned for his use of simple geometric shapes to produce complex, three-dimensional compositions in his minimalist style of painting. His grasp of geometry is evident in his “Black Paintings” and “Protractor” series of artwork.
