JOHN OPPER Vivian Raynor called the works Opper exhibited at the Stable Gallery in 1962, “handsome objects” that afforded “contemplation of color for its own sake.”During the 1960s, Opper assumed a Color Field sensibility, further controlling the gestural quality of his art and playing colors off each other “with the elegance and panache of a master juggler,” as noted by Hilton Kramer in 1979.
