Label texts

Archive Label 2003:
Green’s playful abstract shapes arrange themselves within large fields of color to suggest a kind of lyrical language. The “edge” that the artist has introduced in the center of the painting creates a sense of resistance or pulling. The size of the canvas and the subtlety of the forms encourage the viewer to question his or her own relationship to space.
