AL3, 1926 by L\u00e1szl\u00f3 Moholy-Nagy<\/a>.

In AL 3, so named because it was the artist\u2019s third painting on aluminum, Moholy-Nagy sprayed paint using an air brush. This new technique eliminated nearly all signs of the artist\u2019s hand, leaving only the velvety dispersion of color. Unfortunately, these early experimentations often proved detrimental to the work. For this painting, however, the fading of the central circle from blue to rust had an unexpected effect. Little more than a decade after the painting was completed, the artist remarked of this change, \u201cI must confess that I like the picture much better as it is now.\u201d (excerpt from Norton Simon Museum website: www.nortonsimon.org<\/a>)<\/p>\n
