This bold hand-signed etching by Chuck Connelly from the 1980s depicts a striking red structural column rendered in the Conceptual Art and Geometric Art tradition of architectural abstraction. Created with Connelly's distinctive use of color and geometric form, the work explores the visual power of building elements as subjects worthy of artistic contemplation. The composition's focus on structure and color reflects the influence of minimalism and conceptual approaches to architecture and form, characteristic of 1980s printmaking's engagement with urban and industrial imagery. A compelling example of Connelly's etching work that showcases his ability to transform architectural elements into powerful graphic statements.
