Untitled

1977

This vibrant screen print features eight vertical rectangular forms in contrasting colors, each topped with a distinct geometric shape rendered in glossy finishes. The composition employs a palette of warm and cool tones including yellow, pink, cyan, green, gray, and orange, creating a rhythmic visual sequence. Each vertical strip is bordered by delicate scalloped or zigzag edges that add movement and texture to the composition. The work demonstrates a playful exploration of color relationships and geometric abstraction, characteristic of post-war modernist printmaking.
