Sam Francis — Cut Throat
Sam Francis

Cut Throat

Sam Francis's *Cut Throat* is a vibrant lithograph in colors printed on Arjomari paper, showcasing the artist's signature explosive bursts of pigment and dynamic, gestural energy. Rich pools of color radiate across the full sheet, with Francis's characteristic interplay of saturated hues and open white space creating a sense of spontaneous yet deliberate movement. The work reflects Francis's deep engagement with Abstract Expressionism and his masterful translation of painterly impulses into the printmaking medium.
