1955, Denis Williams, Painting in Six Related Rhythms -- Tate Britain (London)
From the museum label: This painting was inspired by organic growth, mathematics and geometric abstraction. Denis Williams structured it on a grid of one-inch squares that he then segmented to create a lattice. The result resembles an irregular crystal or a complex architectural space. This was a brief exploration into geometric abstraction for the artist. Williams's daughter Evelyn A Williams has observed that 'it is interesting to consider to what extent non-European "survival rhythms" are embedded in the subconscious personal iconography of Williams's abstract work.'
