About Radiant #4
A bright turquoise-blue ‘sun’ draws the viewer’s eye into the center of this beautiful new composition by Burton Kramer. A modernist, Kramer’s expressive work plays with geometric shapes enhanced by a lively colour palette. Turquoise, pink, purple, yellow, cornflower blue, gray, orange and green forms appear to ‘circle the sun.’“The paintings do not 'abstract' the experience of reality, as we know it. They provide the viewer with an alternate form of reality….” Burton Kramer
