Spun for James Kirsch

A vibrant and dynamic screenprint by Sam Francis, "Spun for James Kirsch" showcases the artist's signature use of bold, saturated color and energetic, gestural forms. Printed on Arches 88 paper, the full sheet is alive with fluid splashes and organic clusters of pigment that seem to radiate outward with spontaneous force. The work reflects Francis's deep engagement with Abstract Expressionism and his lyrical approach to color as a means of conveying movement and emotion.
