Untitled 1964 — Fine Art

Untitled 1964 by Chu teh Chun opens on broad strokes of colour laid over a quiet ground. The paint fields shift in tone without sharp edges. The scene belongs to the abstract colour field painting of the mid twentieth century. The picture shows how the artist built large forms from soft transitions.

The fine art print sits on a pale wall in a dining room. A light frame keeps the darker tones from feeling heavy. The matte surface stops shine near the table lamps.

The viewer stands at the table and sees the colour bands spread across the upper part of the sheet. From the door the whole sheet reads as one calm field.
