• As of 1962 Albers attained his characteristic style: Bright, squared color modulations.
• In his paintings and color silkscreens from the signature series "Hommage to the square", Albers examined the interaction of unmixed colors which he coalesces in three to four squared color fields.
• Albers is a main representative of the American Hard Edge.
