The abstract works of Ellsworth Kelly are based on natural forms. In the 1960s, he made a series of lithographs in the style of minimalism, in which he depicted tree leaves and fruits in the form of simplified flat figures. In the painting “Red, White” the artist depicted a leaf of grapes, using a bright red colour on a white background. According to the author, each object has an abstract reflection, and you just need to look at it, completely turning off your feelings and attempts to think and analyze what you see.
