Christian Hires is a visual artist whose work is best described as Geometric Abstraction, a genre he has embraced for 50 years. His passionate commitment to research and development of visual phenomena was fostered within him as a child. Visits to the New York World’s Fair in 1964, and to the Museum of Modern Art Exhibition “The Responsive Eye” in 1965, cultivated an interest in modern architecture and painting — a type of painting outside the boundaries of portraiture and landscape, into experimentation and development of Abstraction.

He states: “My intent is to research, develop, and present a confluence of mathematics, science and aesthetics in a unique visual experience. The interaction of points, lines, shapes, and perimeter is the intended narrative. These images avoid representational, social or political commentary. They are my personal dialect within the language of vision.”
