Titled: " Heaven Forbid". Signed Pencil In The Lower Right Corner And Numbered 284/300. Has Some Cosmetic Blemishes Towards The Bottom As Shown. Measures Approximately 23in X 29in. Challenger's Work Is A Powerful Interplay Of Op - Art And Constructivism. His Graphic Work Evokes The Counter - Play Of Shapes, Forms And Color Of His Predecessors, Including Albers And Escher; But In A Stronger And Yet Playful Way. Although Challenger Ably Plots New Horizons With His Illusionist Scenery , His Concern Is More With The Credible Realization Of Improbable Figures Without Alienating His Audience With An Esoteric Language. He Uses Simple Units And The Flat, Hard - Edged Colors Are Deployed With Cool Detachment And Yet, In Spite Of Clear - Cut Geometric Shapes, His Paintings Always Defy One Interpretation.
