MARK BORGHI explores Arlene Slavin’s vibrant diagonal gridwork over the last 50 years
In the 1970s, Slavin developed a diagonal pencil grid system that served as the base for her geometric abstractions. Using layers of overlapping shimmering color woven into her grid, she painted many largescale works. Slavin's influences are in non-western art including Japanese folding screens and woodblocks, Indian miniatures, Islamic tile work, and Byzantine mosaics. Slavin's work aligned with the Pattern and Decoration movement.
