"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
