This abstract piece by Bruce Gray (courtest of bing.com/images) is a great example of repetition. In this piece, the circle is the obvious the focus of repetition. There are circes repeated within other circles, and they are repeated throughout the entire canvas. Much like the example on pg. 36 of the text, the use of repetition creates a unified, albeit unpredictable composition.
One criticism I have is that there are several spots of the canvas that are blank, and they appear to have no deeper significance. I think these spots could have been utilized rather then simply being blank, as it does sort of deter from the overall continuity of the piece.
