Frank Stella — Black Series I
Frank Stella

Black Series I

Frank Stella's *Black Series I* is a portfolio of prints published by the prestigious Gemini G.E.L. in Los Angeles, reflecting the artist's rigorous exploration of geometric abstraction and minimalist form. Each print in the edition of 100 bears Stella's pencil signature, date, and number, alongside the publisher's blindstamp, underscoring the meticulous craftsmanship associated with Gemini's collaborative printmaking process. The work draws from Stella's iconic early black paintings, translating their bold, hard-edged linear structures into the print medium with striking precision.

Medium
All signed, dated and numbered 90/100 in pencil (there were also 9 artist's proofs), published by Gemini G.E.L., Los Angeles (with their blindstamps).
