Six Softgrounds #5
A masterful example of Diebenkorn's printmaking practice, this soft-ground etching on Rives paper reveals the artist's signature interplay of gestural mark-making and geometric abstraction. The delicate, velvety lines characteristic of the soft-ground technique capture the immediacy of Diebenkorn's draftsmanship, reflecting the influence of his celebrated Ocean Park series. Part of a suite of six works, this print demonstrates his ability to translate his painterly sensibility into the intimate and nuanced language of intaglio printmaking.
