about the artist
Don Sorenson was a Los Angeles based artist whose
 early paintings were interwoven zig zags of color,
progressing through different periods, ultimately producing
a large body of work before his passing due to AIDS.
Beginning with his first show at the Nicholas Wilder Gallery
in 1975 through his death in 1985, Sorenson produced a
prolific volume of paintings & drawings, progressing from
abstract through a "Greek classicism" period, a New York
"figurative series" and finally back to the abstract. His
paintings are in numerous public and private collections.

"Practically everything about Sorenson's art can be
broken down into oppositional terms. Rigid structure
competes with gestural accident; pretty pastels collide
with garish, aggressive color; sharp angles parade in
undulating curves; metered rhythm becomes optically
spasmodic . . . . . Sorenson began developing his zigzag
motif when what is now generally regarded as the
Minimalist cul-de-sac was becoming increasingly apparent
and the question of what to paint had become an
especially thorny problem."
