Blue and Green over Orange (Bleu et vert sur orange), from Suite of Twenty-Seven Color Lithographs
A bold composition of flat, unmodulated color fields, this lithograph presents cool expanses of blue and green stacked above a vibrant orange ground, exemplifying Kelly's lifelong exploration of pure color and form. The work strips away all gesture and ornamentation, allowing the relationship between hues to function as the sole subject. Part of his celebrated *Suite of Twenty-Seven Color Lithographs*, the print demonstrates Kelly's mastery of translating his signature hard-edge aesthetic into the lithographic medium on crisp Rives BFK paper.
