Number 28

"Number 28" by Morris Louis is a striking example of Color field painting, an innovative movement he helped pioneer in the 1950s. This Abstract artwork showcases large, fluid bands of vibrant Acrylic pigments that seem to pour across the surface of the canvas. Louis’s mastery of translucent washes creates a sense of depth and movement, emphasizing the emotional power of pure color. As a key figure of the Washington Color School, his work exemplifies the expressive potential of simplified forms and color in modern art.
