Roberto Azank

"Then, further, he places some of these studies on a slant as diamonds, and thus they begin to become as if op art, expressing themselves in dizzying wavelengths of visual experience a la Bridget Riley or, in a more present moment, Karen Davies. Azank furthers the diamonds with obverse and reverse at angular canvas posi-tionings, stimulating different optical responses in an excavatory manner as in launching a catalyst, which leads to a questioning of other painters' chromatic abstractions and/or deconstructions.

Azank finds the symphonic in the stop-and-go motion and turns it all

around. I was so spurred on by this new development in his work after having followed it for so many years that this prompter par excellence put his own version of the idea to an AI test."
