(See return policy below) About the artist Marko Spalatin: Born in 1945 in Zagreb, Croatia, Marko Spalatin immigrated to the United States in 1963. He studied at the University of Wisconsin at Madison, and earned a B.S. in Art in 1968 and a M.F.A. in 1971. He is well known for his colorful geometric designs in the form of limited edition prints and also original paintings. The movement of light through the world and across variegated surfaces and the relationship between them, is one of the focal points of Spalatin's work. Although the paintings are inspired by nature, the specific source is finally not what is important. Spalatin's painting may inspire the viewer to recall the shifting brilliance of sunlight on summer's leaves, the swaying movements of a school of brightly colored tropical fish, the glittering reflections of moonlight on the ocean, or some other dazzling occurrence in nature. However, the viewer's task is not to figure out where a painting comes from, the to experience what it is. His work is displayed in major museums around the world.

ARTIST'S STATEMENT: "My work represents a continuous involvement with abstract geometric forms defined by careful manipulation of color and light. The relationship between form and color within the pictorial field demands a visually symbiotic presence. The challenge revolves around the selection of a form as a vehicle for color, as well as choosing appropriate color and light for that form. This interplay creates a primary spatial illusion, along with secondary effects. I find that precisely defined areas of color, when placed against each other, compete for dominance. This activity, when further accentuated by tonal structure, produces multiple levels of perception. A given area of uniformly applied pigment loses its flat character through simultaneous contract with the surrounding colors. In many cases, the positive and negative spaces within the field become interchangeable. In more complex paintings, when the substructure is a series of repetitive modules, the color-light interplay reveals its polyphonic character. In general, my compositions remain formal and symmetrical in order to be set in motion by unexpected mutations of color and light. In some cases, the careful placement of small areas of saturated color against a backdrop of transitional grays creates an illusion of suspended particles. There is no doubt that in these images in particular, my sense of color and light is subconsciously influenced and sustained by many years of scuba diving in the waters of the Adriatic Sea and the Caribbean. I am intrigued by the relativity of color and by the mystery of light, and I am constantly challenged to explore their potentials. Every painting becomes a self-imposed visual problem, subjectively resolved in search of an objective truth."COMMISSIONS AND PERMANENT COLLECTIONSMuseum of Modern Art, New York, NYMusee d'Art Modern, ParisTate Gallery, LondonVictoria and Albert Museum, LondonPhiladelphia Museum of Art, Philadelphia, PANew York Public Library, New York CityLibrary of Congress, Washington, D.C.Brooklyn Museum, Brooklyn, N.Y.Akron Art Institute, Akron, OhioOklahoma Art Center, Oklahoma City, OklahomaU.S. Steel Collection, Pittsburgh, PAPittsburgh National Bank, Pittsburgh, PAWisconsin Art FoundationInternational Graphic Art Society, New YorkAmerican National Insurance Company, Galveston, TexasChase Manhattan BankLessing J.
