{"title":"Robert Mangold","description":"\u003cp\u003eRobert Mangold (born 1937, North Tonawanda, New York) is an American painter whose practice from the early 1960s onwards developed a rigorous engagement with shape, colour and the physical boundaries of the canvas. Studying at the Cleveland Museum of Art School and Yale School of Art, Mangold emerged as a significant figure in Minimalism and post-Minimalist painting, though his work consistently maintained a handmade, imperfect quality that distinguished it from the industrial precision of orthodox Minimalism.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHis early works of the mid-1960s used monochromatic spray-painted surfaces on shaped supports — circles, ellipses, irregular polygons — to investigate the relationship between the painted surface and the wall it occupied. Later series, including the \u003cem\u003eFrame\u003c\/em\u003e paintings, \u003cem\u003eColumn\u003c\/em\u003e paintings and \u003cem\u003eZone\u003c\/em\u003e paintings, extended this investigation through increasingly complex geometric configurations, often incorporating drawn lines that moved across and between multiple panels.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMangold’s participation in \u003cem\u003ePhotonotations\u003c\/em\u003e (Rosa Esman Gallery, 1976) alongside his wife Sylvia Mangold reflects the couple’s shared engagement with the New York art world of the 1970s. His work is held in major collections internationally, including the Museum of Modern Art, New York, the Guggenheim Museum and the Tate, London.\u003c\/p\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"photonotations-rosa-esman-gallery-new-york-1976","title":"ARMAN, MEL BOCHNER, SOL LEWITT, ROBERT MANGOLD, SYLVIA MANGOLD, HOWARDENA PINDELL, DOROTHEA ROCKBURNE, GEORGE SEGAL, ROBERT SMITHSON, TOM WESSELMANN et al. — Photonotations.
