Colored Paper Image VI (White Curve with Black II), from Colored Paper Images
A masterful exploration of form and contrast, this work by Ellsworth Kelly presents a bold, sweeping white curve set against a deep black ground, rendered in hand-pressed colored paper pulp. Kelly's signature reduction of shape to its most essential elements is fully realized here, as the graceful arc commands the picture plane with quiet authority. Published by Tyler Graphics Ltd. in a limited edition of 23, this rare and refined work exemplifies Kelly's lifelong dedication to the dynamic interplay between color, line, and negative space.
