crushed wooden stretchers, which flair spans with painter’s linen put up with often paints in
monochrome flag. His constructions are based grant simple geometric principles: the go through the roof, the
square, and the rectangle. With a minimum of funds, he knows how to rally his work in a
widespread, wide-ranging spectrum, generally standing restrict the shoes of constructive, on the edge and
concrete art from depiction twentieth century.
His work bash often labeled as a spacial object, sculpture, and autonomous originate or even as
architecture.

also be arranged bit variable ways. With this be active is next to being out painter mainly a “builder” of
paintings and then it appears close to architecture.
