"Over 60 years, Paul Gruhler has produced an extensive oeuvre of paintings, drawings, and paper collages, all within the framework of geometric abstraction, in which the deliberative arrangement of color, line, texture, and scale have the aim of evoking sensations of harmony.

Produktbeschreibung
"Over 60 years, Paul Gruhler has produced an extensive oeuvre of paintings, drawings, and paper collages, all within the framework of geometric abstraction, in which the deliberative arrangement of color, line, texture, and scale have the aim of evoking sensations of harmony. His work has experimented with variations of color and their relationship to form. In developing the colors for each work, he mixes paints on a one-time basis: once finished, he can never replicate that particular color. Because Gruhler doesn't work with variations on a theme, but creates each piece individually, the process itself is a dynamic conversation with the materials: working within the self-imposed framework of color and line is integral in his artistic drive to make order and harmony of all that is inchoate"--
Autorenporträt
Paul Gruhler grew up in New York City, in awe of the tall buildings and the orderly grid of streets and avenues. His first exposure to fine art was at the China Institute on 65th Street where he attended church services with his parents. There, surrounded by the intense color and abstract forms of ancient Chinese ink paintings and porcelains, he became aware of universal art. During the following years, he traveled extensively and encountered many art forms firsthand - from the ancient to the contemporary - in Mexico, South America, the Far East and Europe. His work has been exhibited in galleries and museums in Mexico City, Finland, Germany, The Netherlands, Sweden, and throughout the United States
