Titled “Blue Geometry” is lyrical constructivism in Abstract Expressionism. Pastel on Paper by Erik Sulander. “What’s most striking is Sulander’s restraint. The work resists the gestural excesses of early Abstract Expressionism (as seen in Kline or de Kooning) and instead situates itself closer to the lyrical structuralism of Robert Motherwell’s early ink drawings or Diebenkorn’s “Ocean Park” studies, where line mediates between geometry and emotion.”
