About
Why this artist matters now
Peter Struycken generates intricate geometric compositions through mathematical structures and computer-assisted processes, grounding algorithmic abstraction in post-war constructivist principles. Working across painting and digital media since the 1960s, he treats the computer as a tool for exploring systematic order rather than expression, producing works that oscillate between rational calculation and visual complexity. His practice exemplifies the convergence of art and computational logic that emerged from mid-century geometric abstraction.
