Pink Pink Pink Black 1 & 2

2016

Two large ditone prints awash in layered pinks and punctuated by deep black, "Pink Pink Pink Black 1 & 2" captures Amy Sillman's restless negotiation between abstraction and figuration. Produced in 2016 as part of the Texte Zur Kunst Edition series, number 103, the diptych demonstrates the New York-based artist's characteristic insistence on mark-making as a form of perpetual revision, where gestures accumulate, contradict, and ultimately coexist rather than resolve. The works carry the warmth and psychological charge that pervade Sillman's practice, yet the edition format brings that energy into an intimate, reproducible object that feels no less urgent for its accessibility. Each sheet measures 70 by 50 centimetres and is signed and numbered on the reverse from an edition of 100, placing this pair within a carefully limited body of printed works that Sillman has produced alongside her paintings and digital animations. The ditone process, with its rich tonal range and velvety surface quality, suits the layered complexity of her compositions, preserving the sense of depth and spontaneity that define her studio work. Frames are not included, leaving collectors the freedom to present the works according to their own spatial vision. Sillman has attracted sustained critical attention for her refusal to separate thinking from painting, and her edition works have entered collections internationally as important documents of her evolving language. Offered through Roseberys, this pair represents a compelling opportunity to acquire a cohesive, signed diptych from a pivotal moment in her career, at a scale well suited to domestic or institutional display.
