digital description:


wall description:
For more than a half century, Stanczak maintained a distinguished career as an abstract painter interested in perceptual phenomena. <em>Filtered Yellow</em> features hundreds of alternating red and green razor-sharp vertical bands, further energized by a yellow plane that folds back upon itself in complex mirror symmetry along a diagonal axis. As typical of his work, it emphasizes a high level of technical mastery rivaled by few.
