Fünfzehn systematische Farbreihen mit vertikalen Verdichtungen 1969

Richard Paul Lohse made this print to explore color and systematisation. The colors are so vibrant, and the way they're laid out in a grid is really mesmerizing. It makes me think about artmaking as a process of organizing and arranging elements in a thoughtful way. The texture of the print is smooth, and the colors are really saturated. Each square feels like it's been carefully placed to create a specific effect. Notice how the artist plays with the density and arrangement of these colors. The way the colors shift and change as you move across the surface is really dynamic. It’s like a conversation happening between the different hues. This piece reminds me of Josef Albers' work with color relationships, but with a more systematic approach. Ultimately, Lohse's print is about embracing the ambiguity and endless possibilities of color, inviting us to see the world in new and unexpected ways.
