The main organising principle of Imre Bak's latest series is the painted frame. Cut at a 45 degree angle, one of the stripes in the bicolour band resembling a meander or labyrinth reminiscent of the artist's work from the early 1980s, present in each painting of the series, endows the images with a depth evoking axonometric three-dimensional rendering, further reinforced by rectangles of different colour intensity. As Dávid Fehér also points out in his analysis of the series, the paintings depicting relations of light and space inquire into the relation of representation and abstraction.
