Lorser Feitelson was an American painter and muralist central to the development of hard-edge abstraction and geometric modernism in Los Angeles during the mid-twentieth century. Working primarily in acrylic and oil, he created compositions of precisely defined forms and flat planes of color that rejected gestural mark-making in favor of systematic visual structure. His practice bridged mural painting, easel work, and pedagogical theory, establishing a distinctive West Coast approach to non-objective art that influenced generations of younger abstractionists. Feitelson's commitment to rational, architectonic composition positioned him as a key figure in American geometric abstraction between the 1930s and 1970s.
