Geometrics
After briefly exploring the freedom of Abstract Expressionism illustrated by Jackson Pollock, Helen Frankenthaler, and Hans Hofmann, Eisner began to paint in a geometric style, resulting in a series of over 30 paintings made between 1977-1984. This series was driven by an intellectual pursuit with shape, line and color. “I was intrigued by the relationship of colors in juxtaposition to each other. It was a season of color field painting, and I developed a visual vocabulary of forms to animate the canvas,” says Eisner.
