About this work

This print shows four thick bands of color—red, yellow, blue, and black. Each band is made of straight lines an inch wide, all running in one direction. It’s not random. LeWitt used simple rules to create something complex. The bands overlap where colors meet, making new shades. Try this yourself: draw a grid and fill it with lines. See how colors mix.
