This 2018 lithograph on Rives BFK white paper offers collectors an intimate window into the visual language of Mark di Suvero, one of the defining figures of postwar American sculpture. Printed by Andrew Mockler at Jungle Press in Brooklyn, the work carries the careful craft of hand printing, ensuring each impression retains a tactile immediacy that distinguishes fine art lithography from mechanical reproduction. Signed by the artist, the sheet measures a commanding 91.4 by 64.8 centimeters, giving the composition ample room to breathe while asserting a confident physical presence on the wall. Di Suvero's relationship with Storm King Art Center spans decades and stands among the most sustained partnerships between a living artist and a major outdoor institution. His monumental steel sculptures, including the celebrated Pyramidian and the soaring E=MC2, a 92-foot structure created in his Chalon-sur-Soâne studio and recently presented in its first United States showing, have helped define the character of Storm King's landscape. That history of four landmark exhibitions, a 25-year retrospective, a ten-year retrospective that introduced his paintings to American audiences, a tribute to his friendship with gallerist Richard Bellamy, and a celebrated presentation on Governors Island, along with the publication of the first comprehensive monograph of his career in 2015, speaks to the depth of this institutional commitment. Acquiring this work through the Storm King benefit auction connects a collector directly to that legacy. Works on paper by di Suvero remain comparatively rare in the secondary market, and a signed lithograph produced with the care of a dedicated fine art printer represents both a meaningful entry point into his practice and a tangible link to one of the most enduring artist-institution relationships in contemporary American art.
