Royal Curtain by Gene Davis (1980)

Bands of color stretch from floor to ceiling in Gene Davis' Royal Curtain. This artwork invites viewers into a world of vertical stripes, each one a brushstroke of bold color that demands attention and admiration. The piece is a testament to Davis' mastery of color and form, creating a visual rhythm that is both dynamic and harmonious. Royal Curtain presents a symphony of vertical stripes in a palette of red, white, blue, and black. The colors are arranged in a precise yet seemingly random pattern, creating a sense of movement and energy. The stripes vary in width, adding depth and complexity to the composition. The overall effect is one of controlled chaos, a visual feast that draws the eye and holds it captive. This poster brings energy to a quiet corner, a hallway, or a study. It's a conversation starter, a splash of color in a monochrome space.
