The wide brushstrokes of Christine Streuli unfold over her large-format canvases in a fiery, almost musical, rhythm. Her new paintings seem to carry elements from concrete art, with geometric shapes coming together to form their foundation. The artist eventually applies layer upon layer of sprayed-on or overpainted color, heavily disrupting what starts as an orderly composition. The final layer that Streuli applies often includes stickers, adhesive foils which affix color and shapes on the canvas.
