"Kevin Appel makes semi-abstract paintings that invoke architectural fragments and stylized scraps of trees and plants. He implies the presence of idealized modernist buildings through translucent stripes, squares and rectangles in sterile off-white hues, or depicting wood veneer, often rendered perfectly, as if by machine, without any trace of a brushmark." (info via Wikipedia) I just adore his work, and would love to have the chance to see it in person.

Some of his pieces can be seen at:
Museum of Modern Art, New York
Los Angeles County Museum of Art
Museum of Contemporary Art
Portland Art Museum

Images shown here are from Marianne Boesky Gallery. Coming up next... Products inspired by the work of Kevin Appel! Stay tunned!
