These abstract-geometric acrylic paintings \u0026ndash; more than 600 in total \u0026ndash; are based on the relationship of numbers and series, which are inspired by the music of Bach. The series of paintings under the title \u003ci\u003eDie Kunst der Fuge - BWV\u0026nbsp;1080\u003c/i\u003e (The Art of the Fugue) consists of canons and counterpoint compositions, just as in the work with the same name by Bach.
