Mark Bradford

This series of fourteen works by Mark Bradford, published by Sikkema Jenkins & Co., represents a hors commerce edition beyond the standard edition of 25, with each piece signed, dated, and annotated by the artist on the reverse. Bradford's practice characterizes abstraction through layered materials and gestural mark making, often incorporating found paper and industrial processes that reference urban environments and social systems. The framed presentation of these works emphasizes their status as finished objects within the fine art market, elevating what might otherwise be considered ephemeral or process based materials into gallery worthy compositions.

Medium
All signed, dated and annotated 'from a set of fourteen' and 'HC' in pencil on the reverse (the hors commerce set, the edition was 25), published by Sikkema Jenkins & Co., New York, all framed.
