Original Description
"Playtime" by Robert Sanderson is a vibrant tapestry of joy and movement, where colorful geometric forms dance across the canvas in perfect harmony. Created during the mid-20th century when Sanderson was experimenting with lyrical abstraction, this acrylic masterpiece embodies the postwar optimism through its playful interplay of organic shapes and structured compositions. The painting holds a significant place in American modernist art as it bridges abstract expressionism's emotional intensity with the emerging hard-edge painting's precision. With its rhythmic patterns and harmonious color transitions, "Playtime" creates an immersive visual symphony that continues contemporary visual dialogues initiated by painters like Hans Hofmann and Stuart Davis. The thick impasto textures invite tactile exploration while maintaining exquisite balance—evidence of Sanderson's architectural training influencing his painterly technique.
For interior spaces, "Playtime" makes an exceptional statement piece above mid-century modern sofas or in contemporary office reception areas. Its kaleidoscopic color palette—dominated by cobalt blues, ochres, and warm crimsons—pairs beautifully with walnut wood finishes and matte metal accents. Consider positioning the artwork (ideally the original 48" × 36" size) opposite floor-to-ceiling windows where natural light activates its chromatic depth, or in minimalist offices where it provides necessary visual stimulation. Smaller giclée reproductions work wonderfully in children's creative spaces or boutique hotels, sparking imagination through their dynamic forms. Frame it in slim black floater frames for galleriesque sophistication, or opt for blond wood frames to enhance its mid-century character—always ensuring proper UV-protected glazing to preserve the luminous pigments. When hung at 57-60 inches from floor to center, the composition engages viewers at optimal eye level while commanding the space with its joyful energy.
