On viewLabel TextFelrath Hines was committed to the idea that abstract forms could enable universal connections because they did not reference a specific person, place, or thing. Throughout his career, he explored the use of color and shape. Like Helen Frankenthaler and Mark Rothko, whose works are on view nearby, Hines strove to create universal expressions of truth and feeling through his paintings.
Felrath Hines estaba comprometido con la idea de que las formas abstractas tenían la capacidad establecer conexiones universales porque no hacían referencia a una persona, un lugar o una cosa en particular. A lo largo de su carrera, exploró el uso del color y la forma. Al igual que Helen Frankenthaler y Mark Rothko, cuyas obras se exponen en las inmediaciones, Hines buscó crear expresiones universales de la verdad y los sentimientos a través de sus pinturas.
