About the Item

The Piece: Timothy Knorr (Norr) Abstract Paintings The Artist's Style: Painted in 2007, these works are celebrated examples of color field and post-abstract expressionist movements. They act as a subtle homage to artists like Mark Rothko, using tonal layering and geometric shifts to evoke both minimalism and emotional depth. Dimensions: These are monumental works designed for significant wall space: Rectangular Shift: Measures approximately 48" H × 60" W × 3" D. Condition: Professionally stretched and in good, gallery-ready condition with expected light wear from the period. A striking large-scale oil on canvas titled Rectangular Shift (2007) by American artist Timothy Norr, renowned for his contributions to the Color Field and post-Abstract Expressionist movements. Norr’s work is celebrated for its meditative use of tonal layering, spatial geometry, and emotional depth through color, placing him among a generation of painters who bridged the lyrical qualities of Rothko with a structural modernist rigor. Rectangular Shift exemplifies his mature period — an elegant interplay of form and atmosphere. Subtle gradations of color and deliberate, architectural shifts in shape invite contemplation and quiet drama. The canvas pulses with a sense of visual rhythm, evoking both minimalism and complexity in a single gesture. Norr’s work has been exhibited in contemporary galleries and is held in private collections across the U.S., appreciated for its sophisticated palette and cerebral approach to abstraction. This is a rare opportunity to acquire an original work by a significant voice in modern American abstraction. Professionally stretched, ready for hanging. Presented by MWM DESIGN, curators of rare and distinctive fine art, decorative objects, and historically important furnishings for our most discerning clientele.
