Dorr Bothwell

Artist, American, 1902 - 2000

Various curved and sharp lines interact to form a dynamic arrangement in this abstract image. The central shape resembles an abstract figure with elongated limbs and a textured core. Surrounding the main figure are circular forms overlapping with lines and textures. These elements are in a blue and green space. The interplay of these forms and colors creates an impression of weightlessness and rhythm.
