A striking example of 1960s American hard-edge abstraction by Helen Gerardia, this large-format oil painting features bold triangular forms rendered in vivid red, black, and white. The crisp, angular composition explores themes of time, motion, and spatial relationships, emblematic of Gerardia’s signature style.

This work, signed "Gerardia" in the lower right, reflects the artist’s belief in the interaction between light, form, and broken color fields to approximate atmospheric movement. The symmetrical geometry and vibrant palette give the piece a dynamic presence while maintaining a refined, meditative balance.

Gerardia studied at the Art Students League, Brooklyn Museum Art School, and the Hans Hofmann School. A key figure in American abstraction, she exhibited widely during her career and her works are held in over 60 public collections, including the Museum of Modern Art and Brooklyn Museum.
