Atlanta, Georgia artist Annette Cone-Skelton is also the President, CEO, Director and Co-Founder of Museum of Contemporary Art of Georgia. Influenced by Josef Albers’ treatise on color theory, "Interaction of Color", 1963, Cone-Skelton often expresses herself through black, white, and other primary color monochrome images.
This grouping of three paintings Untitled '82, described by the artist as a "modular unit," is from a series that included thirty-four panels arranged in odd numbered combinations. Each panel in the series is eighteen inches square, a dimension chosen by Cone-Skelton to represent a balanced shape and, additionally, it is also the width of an average human body. Cone-Skelton takes a minimalist approach, coating the surface of the canvas with a matte paint thickened with a gel medium before using a squeegee to pull a second layer of paint across the canvas to create different variations in surface textures.
