Frank Stella is one of America’s greatest living artists. Born in Massachusetts in 1936, he is best known today for his vibrant geometric patterns, monumental prints and revolutionary approach to materials. It was in the 1960s that Stella first began to remove sections of paintings and experiment with shaped canvases, as seen in Untitled (Kufa Gate Shape) from 1967. This geometric riot of colour belongs to Stella’s Protractor series, which consists of 93 paintings based on 31 distinct formats, each one rendered in three different designs. It is named after the Great Mosque of Kufa in Iraq, one of the earliest and holiest mosques in the world.
