Label TextKenneth Victor Young moved to Washington, DC in 1964 where he joined artists working in what would become known as the Washington Color School. His luminous paintings of abstract shapes of color showcase the concerns associated with that movement. Artists explored new materials, like acrylic paint, and techniques, sometimes pouring paint directly onto raw canvas.
