Green Squares (from series, the Mathematical Basis of the Arts) (1934) by Joseph Schillinger. Giclee Print on Museum Quality Matte Paper. Premium Wood Framed Wall Art.

Joseph Schillinger's "Green Squares," part of his 1934 series "The Mathematical Basis of the Arts," is a testament to his unique intersection of art and mathematics. As an art critic, one must appreciate how Schillinger, primarily recognized as a composer and music theorist, ventured into visual arts with a scientific precision that was ahead of its time.

Born in Ukraine in 1895, Schillinger immigrated to the United States in the 1920s, where he became an influential figure in both music and art. His work is characterized by a rigorous application of mathematical principles, reflecting his belief in the universality of mathematical structures across artistic disciplines. Schillinger's approach was deeply philosophical, rooted in the idea that art could be distilled into mathematical formulas, a concept he meticulously explored in his theoretical writings.

In "Green Squares," Schillinger employs geometric abstraction, a style that eschews representational forms in favor of pure geometric shapes. The painting's subject matter, a series of interlocking green squares, exemplifies the harmony and balance achievable through mathematical order. Schillinger's technique involves precise calculations to create a visually compelling rhythm and structure, reflecting his conviction that beauty is inherent in mathematical symmetry.

This piece, significant for its pioneering blend of art and science, is currently held in a private collection, symbolizing an era when the boundaries between artistic and scientific inquiry began to blur, paving the way for future explorations in digital and algorithmic art.
