The X and + series, as their titles suggest, refer to mathematical operations. They are composed of several rectangular and square canvases of varying lengths and widths that are abutted and inscribed over with pencil; respectively a linear figure of X or +. The proportions of these canvases are derived from precisely defined mathematical relationships, such as the halving of the length or width of a specific area and depending on the manner they are joined, the outline of the whole can be defined as either regular or irregular. The pencil inscribed figure of X or + on the painted canvas eliminates categorically any illusory effect and keeps the painting to the surface. Mangold uses vivid and intense colour combination to highlight the interplay of scale and perception.
