λ Frank Badur (German b. 1944) Untitled (Red & Blue) Collage Signed and dated 1992 (lower right) 10.5 x 15.3cm (4 x 6 in.) Inc. frame: 33 x 43cm (13 x 17in.) Frank Badur was born in Oranienburg near Berlin, Germany in 1944. Between 1963 and 1969 Badur studied at the School of Fine Arts in Berlin and opened his studio in Finland in 1973. This piece by Frank Badur is beautifully simple. Badur's work up until 1982 was structured symmetrically. After this date, whilst he was working in America, Badur began to experiment with asymmetry. He further explored asymmetry in Japanese traditional architecture as well as certain grids and colour combinations during his visits to Japan. Through his body of work Badur discovered these visual experiences could be transferred onto paper through drawings and collage. Curator's Comment I These works by Frank Badur would suit a minimalist Japanese inspired interior. It would compliment the asymmetry of an L-shaped sofa or kitchen worktop.
