Robert Arthur Goodnough
Soaring I , abstract

1994

About the Item

An amazing and graceful panel that has an elevating sense of movement and nature as described by its title "Soaring". Intricate taping off of triangles in this work in varying sizes, Goodnough creates a composition that feels like a musical score and makes us hear music. Set against a backdrop of blue which has the feel of air and sky - the composition is lyrical in nature. This panel has a mate, and could be paired with that mate if a room required two works to on either side of a wall, room or doorway. Goodnough was a well respected artist who had a strong career and body of work. The Whitney Museum of Art gave him a one-man exhibition as did the Albright Knox Museum. He was represented by the famed art dealer Andre Emmerich and also by Tibor de Nagy. The size listed is the framed total dimension and the canvas within is 78 x 28 inches.
